just another day

 just another day


every cat is on edge

every bird is on the hedge 

everywhere is everywhere 

on edge

the claws of the wind

the caws of the crows

draw black bile 

from the dark-side 

of the day-moon 

pale    the

palest blue under the sun

in my open mind

every sound is the report 

of a cannon’s rebound 

reverberation is the word

spat out by all of them

drying in the sunshine

crumbling in the sunshine

all resistance softening

as the day returns

to normal i was going to say

but the cat walked away

and the crows flew away

the day moon clouded over

bang!!
