Yr unig wirionedd
Love flew out of your mouth in hieroglyphics
like an invitation to a sky wedding
writ on the wrists of kites
Dawn ghosted,
as a ship’s prow through windows
tangled in curtain rigging
in the way silence enters an emptying room
sunrise gallows hang
heavy in your absence
The boat theme in this is eerily good.
Thank you. There is something enchanting, and yet, eerie of the ocean. It’s bigger & greater than human kind.
The first line immediately sucked me in.
You do not waste any words with your poetry and you let us see what we see. I really like that in poetry.
You are an amazing wordsmith.

Thank you. Even as a kid, on a rough council estate, always found scribbling to be cathartic.
