Hidden
A pair of hidden coots
in the sedge line

The thing I love
the thing I love about futballers is that they’ll keep running at and trying to beat an opponent, they rarely give up.
It’s amazing how quickly and easily their joy becomes your joy, your joy becomes my joy.

—as soon as the truth is seen it cuts through any illusion immediately.

through illusion
mind over mind
reality seems ether thin

Forgetting Shapes
i’ve forgotten the shapes of countries, i can’t recognize the globe; replacing their memory with the feel of wind in my face.
—and the ‘gulls no doubt sing atop the marbled ruin of Her return.
