The One Question: Senryu
THE ONE QUESTION
Now is the question
That has us stumped till we see
Now is the answer
Borderline: Senryu
BORDERLINE
What is this border
Between your dream and real life
But a real life dream?
2020 Full Stop: Shadorma
2020 FULL STOP
Look around
No carrots, no sticks
All the chocks
Pulled away
Down time can become dream time
Up to us right now
Three Steps To Love
THREE STEPS TO LOVE
One: I think
I love you.
Two: I learn
to love myself.
Three: I know
we are one.
Novitiate
NOVITIATE
I ask myself
Do I love you?
Is grass green?
Is the sky blue?
Look deep
Do I love you?
Is grass grass green?
Is the sky sky blue?
Look deeper
Do I love you?
Is grass just green?
Is the sky just blue?
Do I love you?
Look deeper yet
The Mathematician
THE MATHEMATICIAN
Although rough
Approximations
Made it look
Plausible
More precise calculations
Ended a bit off
Kept going
Drowning in ego
He wanted
To figure
This conundrum on his own
Madman that he was
Till it reached
It’s own tipping point
Bouncing off
Each other
Suddenly all became clear
Obvious really
Night In The Desert
NIGHT IN THE DESERT
Silent witnesses
The stars of this cloudless sky
Like a string of pearls
Tiny incidents
Where ungoverned chance had
Drawn her here and there
Looking back she saw
Not chance but evidence of
A greater pattern
The Definitive Connection
THE DEFINITIVE CONNECTION
Mistaken identity, long lost soul
Locked in this Dutch coffee shop
Hid deep in Amsterdam 1980
Red rice disguises another
Unauthorised breakfast item
Bequeathing the crown of horns
To the newborn king of the jewels
Then it’s thank you, cut and run
From their war on consciousness

SEXISM V. FEMINISM
There are those who get it
And then those who fail to
Who inflicts? Who suffers?
Balls or tits? Beside the point
