  • Pensées

    [24 September 2019] Hung between twin peaks of desire and despair, a duality of being, a philosophy of kinds, mismatched mannerisms and minutiae and mosaic tiles cobbled together to fashion something (what, I don’t know – I’d step back to gain perspective but I’m afraid I’d lose my balance): the salt water of the river…

  • Penelope

    [19 September 2019] A juxtaposition of fate, binary stars pulled too close or spun out of orbit, a memorial to the concept that time is anything but eternal. The sand from my shore washes up on yours, building bridges through shared solitude, carving a path through atemporality towards something distinctly ours: regret.

  • Rhapsodie: On water

    [18 September 2019] You lean back – warm water and cold air and strong shoulders and the east Atlantic. Time must work that way, too – a long string of desires and fears and letters waiting to be sent. They stack up like old books or coffee cups, building a blockade between sense and longing,…

  • I have seen you

    [17 September 2019] I have already seen you, painted large on the canvas in my mind, seen your skin imprinted with bedsheet roadmaps and stubble pinprick constellations. I kiss the back of your neck and the fog rolls in through the open bedroom window, swirling around the sheer curtains and spilling onto the duvet and…

  • The Journeyer

    [16 September 2019] If you came, Walking the roads you’ve walked, From the place you’ve come, To the place where you’re going, Would you see the hills and the trees and the bushes Dotted white with snow or snow, Like the end of January or the beginning of spring? If you came at midday, Would…

  • Chrysalis

    [13 September 2019] Your words and your desire separated by two thin panes of glass, counting the minutes, piling them high, sorting them into highs and lows and other things undeniably known not as impassibility but as something rather like confidence. Truth is tested and trust is built in the silence between word and speech.…

  • Burnham-on-sea

    [12 September 2019] Remember the night we stood at the edge of the wharf, breath matching the in and out of the tide eroding shorelines and hard lines between you and me and self-transcendenceand the low wail of the fog horns somewhere off the coast. Seeing and knowing, being seen and being known, boundaries shifting…

  • Untitled sketch

    [10 September 2019] You cup your smile between two halves of an orange, peeled, juice running sticky sweet down your hands and your forearms and dripping off the tip of your elbows, landing splash on the grey tile floor warmed by a patch of latesummer sun.
