To make a mistake

How trite

The sentence that follows

Happy to be happy

Happy to be happy

For all of that

Which cannot be taken

From me

Such as the peace

To write this

As my lamb mince stew

Simmers in the slow cooker

Knowing also that tonight

I have a choice

Though study ought to

And will come first

Afterwards Netflix

Or Amazon or BBC or ITV

On the big screen

Via the projector

Available at Amazon

Focus on the writing

Focus on the writing

Turn the words

Into a complication

Or a resolution

Look for your way

Of destabilising

Or sensitising

Your avoidance

Swear if it suits

Fuck is a good word

Not a bad thing to do

As long as

Love leads the way

Yes, be sure that love

Sets you up for the explosion

Fridays come around

 Fridays come around

More quickly now

It’s been an ok week

Three writing groups

A trip to the shops

And the commencement

Of a BSc degree

In Psychology

And counselling

A time to begin

Judgement and commentary

Having already determined

That I prefer

The Humanities approach

Over the scientific method

But I will hold my powder dry

Listen and explore

Having the one axiom

Not to jump to conclusions
