Spring - Part 2 (2015)


It’s raining again


Somewhere between a spit and the tears of a cry


Like chatting to a hose-mouthed consonant basher


You know the type


Can’t pull out an “F” without rinsing the bowls of your eye-sockets in saliva


The Town Crier-cum-scuba diver


A bowel for a vowel and a gallstone's worth of hen-pecked adjectives


Dousing down your soul with his phlegm-flecked invectives



The wind is blowing again


Its back is up but the gusts are short not long


Somewhere between a status update and a re-tweet


Later those gusts will be drawn out rants


facebook arguments


YouTube chants



Evenings are getting longer again


Somewhere between a twitch and a smile


Slow and nervous as melting ice


Not overnight but gradual as flows of estuary water


Where mother welcomes daughter


At first lovingly - then as vice



The sky is bluer again


Somewhere between a skip and a jig


More Electric and Cyan than Oxford and Cobalt


A shallow playful baby blue


Hopeful as romance


Soon she’ll be tonight’s anthemic dance
