Rest may be found
Only in the dead
In chaste stillness
They have no desires
...
Physician man of airs and grace
How does your mind keep to its parts
Your wife has left you for a lover
Your car threw a piston through the case
...
Water rushing, snarling, sucking
Trying to drag our feet from under
Stones shifting, move your balance
Hold linked arms, lean into
...
Unknown country unknown love
Men and women watching
Sit by the window waiting
Sit near the heater wondering
...
Truth is the Magpie’s morning call
Answering the Tui from the bush
The sound of wind in yellowed grass
Shaking leaves from autumn’s trees
...
Gone is the growth which bloomed in spring
Vanquished by the hand of time
The house which cared for them is near
Nourished where the word begins.
...
The brass donkey's head rears back
In perpetual surprise
Long necked beast tail erect
One day I'll take you out
...
A word of wisdom you requested
Though inspires by a few drinks
It deserved an honest answer
A bar was no place to reply
...
THE REVOLVING PLAYWRIGHT
Persona thrown upon the stage
The author waits

LOVE POEM 3
Or The Sublimated Gardner
When planting Viola today
