A MYSTIC MOMENT    

 

... Thinking about

The ones

I’ve loved before,

Time passed

Slowly...

Parking

Its polyphonic

Pork-pie

Hat

In a field of

Verboten

Stone.

& Halloo]

 

 

 

LEGACY for C.B.    

 

The dying of The Light

Had just

One wish:

 

A world

Less vain –.

 

 

 

TRAUMA       

 

... It struck me

On a wind-swept

Street

That “thought” –,

 

No matter how

Irrational

 

Could well become 

Reason’s

Somnambulistic

Mother...
