Francis Michael Bacon Poems

I've lain with her this year in the sand,
Again,
And pledged my life for that moment,
Warm, clear breath, deep,
...

We came to stay above Loch nan Ceall,
The sand and the sea and the sky over whelmed us,
She gave us a focus, let us appreciate the tides,
Settled our interest on part of the horizon,
...

Must get the chair by the radiator,
Never have to wait for long,
Here she comes,
I get her every time,
...

A stag stands proud
Below the hotel byre
Ten point regalia
Attitude to match
...

Oh I know you
Find me interesting
Perched so close
To where I spade
...

This is not a poem, because
It doesn't rhyme
Sitting here, thinking of you
Most of the lampshade.
...

The Best Poem Of Francis Michael Bacon

West Coast

I've lain with her this year in the sand,
Again,
And pledged my life for that moment,
Warm, clear breath, deep,
And so dear.

Though she is never easy,
Nor can I predict her,
Darkness often prevails,
And she makes me pay,
For weeks.

Rages to make us cringe,
Knock a man over only to laugh,
Driven mad by her scream,
No let up or rest,
And then remorse.

Never pity her cries,
Indulgent in the extreme,
Flooding into pools,
All I feel is betrayal,
Until with that Summer breeze,
She tempts me back.

(2004, Arisaig)
