GRACE & DIGNITY
Let me carry out this sentence with grace
Tend the land under your feet
Do the work in your eyes
Play with the words in your hands.
If I should be burdened
Let me hold it with dignity
Hold it together.
And I shall show this love in deed.
Let me scour this broken wasteland uninterrupted
Applaud such a young feat
Show my working to your y and x
Keep the certainties un-played
Only when the mirror is clean
Will I see behind me
Let not another’s thought decide/define me
I have the right to write.
Keep me lost in my work
In such harrowed times.
Let us grow closer
Where the tracks divide
Should old interference be forgot.
(De-centred dissenter in my descent)
So fast the tunnel –
The hill in decline
The poets of white noise
Get deeper in mind
Stolen from my own reference library
Lay like snow on the ground
I too drift.
