Yorkshire

The violinist heads out towards infinity
The artist etches The Outliers of the archipelago
The poet writes of the endless depths of his love
Tomorrow, light will rise from the darkness

More than that, every breath
Holds the wheeze of tobacco
In this way each day calmly begins
With a pot of sweetened tea & a bowl of porridge

Set Out

He aims to find a way
As dark as the night
As light as the day

He seeks the words
With which to say
Let the play begin
Release the sin

She introduced him
To beautiful things
Why wouldn't he

Believe the beauty
Was in her body
The enchantment
Within her mind

Be kind to yourself
The book of habits
States on its pages

Rages of time remind
His once sensitive side
Of oceans and flowers
Power unrequited love

He now contemplates
The healthiness, or the
Otherwise of obsession

Her intentions unknown
Shown then so fleetingly
Her greeting is sin free
Believing their self to be

Indebted, Undoubted

She must have misinterpreted Sigh
Perhaps she didn't know it was there
How else to say that Mallarmé
Had penned a sweet little poem

In my rare correspondence
It would seem that
I have created an ambiguity such
That she never read Mallarmé at all

Instead her words are a response
A reaction to my own few words
Which she quite correctly labels
A sweet little poem

Not so much a gamble more by way of chance

I am drawn to the risk
Led to her bed by brisk
Steps taken mistakenly
Veiled with uncertainty

Spawned by the miscellaneous
Frisked for signs of permanency

Crossing the lines
Drawing the blinds
Redefining the fines 
Drinking the wines

That fuel of the wilful crimes
The shear damned determinacy

Solving Situational Problems

Intertwined within the yarns of lightness
Are the madly approved flecks of love
Such specks detected as the morning rises
In retrospect the once most absent prizes
Most circumspect of circumstances
He dances to the tunes of others loved
At once a mother, a sister to a brother
A lover of the gathered few
In the fog, in the rain
The strain of thoughtless motivations
Grey skies, brown trees
They leave with his mind still floating
More hoping; coping with his words
Presupposing the readers will observe
Be overwhelmed by his verve
The swerve is more than welcomed
His nerve swelled he retells
Of the lovers drift of consciousness
& with this fading shout
The flickers of doubt are smothered out
