testpasser
Walking like I just nailed the exams My schizo-Cheshire smile baulks a passer Eyes wide, my lidless pride sees him abscond his eyelids I feel like pyres burning in Gondor, seen from here to Eriador My wide strides bell at bottom, expanding massively Like the euphemistically-borrowed sleeves of wizards, Famously capacious, were reused to give…

Therapist handed me a new angle New thing being thankful I won’t be wrangled By dangling carrots I’m beneath a lamppost Blinkered horses before sable chariots Passing soul-laden, away to chaos unchanging Argued forward by paddycapped overseers Zealing crops, like dealers mopping up their own drug stock Cross but no charring Prince Charming with acid…

Unlike giving butter all evening out of fridge, Gilding the small bed of the bread slice, I do not…

One night
Warped floorboards of once lordly manor, courtly manners Old banners old families, armour suits rattling at passing phantoms Glances, hints of spirits on the landing chalked up to flights of gin fancy By gentlekin of quaint habit, a monk in a stained habit this house inhabits Stained glass depicting a knight in plain tabard, scabbard…
