Hollow Score




All that went before
Is gone
Gone before

Creation crept along
Slipped the sand
From beneath the core

Chapel and church
All that went before
Is gone before

Familiarity swept along
A carpet ride
Over an hollow floor

Mother and Father
All that went before
Gone; is gone before

Gliding


Swell
Over golden pond
Into the mist covered mountains
Footprints finding sanctuary

Almost colliding over water
Gulls wings, open and striding
Slip sliding away
As golden waves ebb and flow

Cosmos


A thousand million
Sparkling tinkling
Waltzing spirits

A never ending chorus
Of pebbles and waves

The zephyr’s blow
Over the Dolomites
Travel with softness

Glide with certainty, my
Migration has also begun

Freshwater havens
Islands of great lakes
Our futures forsaken

Cotton wool clouds
Around sky blue skies

Surrounded by silver tints
Above, a thousand million
Maybe a billion

Sparkling tinkling
Star bright illuminations

Alone is not enough


White board
Wipe away
Move on
Gone

You travel
Across deep synapses
Erase
Erasure

To lose
The loss of saviour
Quarantine
Quarantine or delete

Loosen the links
Disturb the linkages
Open wounds; seal
Slowly heal

Turn to
Find a sense
Find a purpose
To be is not alone enough

Buy some time
Rebuild
Past memories
Work out the why
