We are the makers of our fantasies Flying high, bandits at Ten o Clock Bullets ripping into the fuselage tearing, burning causing Sensations to build , magnify Words and pictures travelling through the ether Leading us towards wildness – this aerial ballet ,as we jockey for position Who will lead, who will follow, who … Continue reading Flying High

The vagaries of health information
I hear the news, I read the papers The rules to good health give me the vapours Today red wine is good for the heart Yesterday it was a poisoned dart Fruit is in and then it’s out Smoothies are good then there is doubt So I try and try to follow the rules Though… Continue reading The vagaries of health information
The detective…a found poem
As he descends the escalator he notes, the behaviour of the people in front, The man with the greasy hair shifting from one foot to the other, looking around, shoulders hunched, Directly behind him, the man in the sharp suit is typing fast, onto his Smartphone. Both men, and women are running down the left… Continue reading The detective…a found poem

Images blown like paper, Stirring, in the draft from an… Continue reading You

Vortex
Vortex dark and swirling, Momentarily still, Grey shades of darkness, lozenge shaped,ready to kill, Fae currents from a far off world, Coalesce in this spot, Danger dark despicable, Could this be our lot? Brightness, radiating beams of light, our saviour or our plight? Blue and golden rainbows, holds the darkness tight, Just holding dangers balance… Continue reading Vortex
Idle Dreams
My idle dreams can help me merge my various forms and recreate visions of the future, or just allow me a space to be the me I would like to be, The child , the femme fatal, the carer,the cook,all part of me, My fantasies can take me away from the angst of a dreadful… Continue reading Idle Dreams
