averse

 averse


when a poem comes to you

like a kitten with pleading eyes

what are you going to do


kill it


even dead words in a hessian sack 

float to the surface

bobbing cadaverine


look there’s a sparrow

over there

here’s a robin 

over here 

a camelia petal falling on to a daffodil 


averse
