Provisions

Thirty-six years later

Swedish Krisprolls in the cupboard

Port Salut cheese in the fridge

Two computers and a stereo in the sitting room


Thirty-seven, the first time of moving

The following year, a first trip to the supermarket

Yet the wine, the chilled white wine

Lost itself along the way


Psychologically, not physically

In the sort of depth of a passion

Towards, or away from, a profession or career

No, or yes, in that sense it was white wine


Do I read too much into your physicality

To replace fable with reality

Only I know, though I do do try

To let others in, on some of the goings on
