bare against January's
cartridge paper sky

patchwork of shadows and light
shifting patterns stir

eastern sky's radiance slides
into perfect blue

Clouds obscure the sun
No more does her light reach me
A dimmed, faded world

Trees glide across clouds
And buildings, themselves sliding
Over fractured sky

A child's lost plaything
On top of a bus shelter
Small blue-furred figure

Turns the music up
A sonic anaesthetic
All thoughts pushed away

No footsteps to guide me back
Landscape bearing down

Dawn’s azure canvas
Rainbow spatter of balloons
Set above the town

A child’s bicycle
Bright red, yellow; abandoned
Lying in the stream

the house, left unlocked
fridge's drone the only sound
cup of tea, gone cold

The rose's pinkness
Vivid once, now pallid; sapped
By drab atmosphere

Tortoiseshell curled up
Among the neglected grass
Sleeping in the shade
