Down the hill

Mar 29, 2018Mar 29, 2018 ~ Joe S ~ Leave a comment

Brake pads, bow strings
Sing down in a fugue,
A slow motion luge of
Lumbering beasts to the waterhole
Whining, warming up to the dip
And a speedy splash.

Temporary Graffiti

He stands in the half light,

shakes the can

sprays his tag, a neat ‘S’,

swiftly, silently but for the hiss.

Then squeaks the green microfibre cloth

’til he sees himself clearly.
