Silhouettes to passers by
Skylines and shadows
& thoughts to wonder why

Compartment
Grey and silver sky
Effervescent pink
Beyond the clouds
A body of people
Where one person reads
Of a body of people
Imagine; to say goodbye, in your
Mind; as if no more
Than to place leaves on a bare tree
To think again, dwell on those two
In conversation; almost our friends
The ones we never really knew

Character
What do I find attractive
The confident, or the confidante
A body that flows and moves with grace
Or a persona with stillness
An aura that looks down at my shoes
Then twirls its hand to say ‘futurissimo’
The Americans now seem to have less style
Perhaps because their wealth is on the wane
Black though holds its ground; the fat made to look thinner
Awkwardness turns itself into a statement
and to be full on jet, over a red velvet cloak with fine denier mesh
Sure creates a definitive presence

Coupled
She drapes her arms
Over his shoulders
They both wear trainers
& turn around in sync
At the far end
Of the hall of sculptures

Curved Ball
This is more my place than yours
Whoever you are
Wherever you might have been
The seat at my side is empty
The entire bench holds
Not one more body
Out on the floor the living intermingle
Between Woman, Man & Child
In the foreground
Two girls talk of diaries
Laughter; a third girl joins them
Their conversation turns
To places that are amazing
Behind them a Rodin and a Giacometti
