The concrete of my mind

  I’ve spent my dayPressure washing greyFrom the concreteOf my mindThe grey beneathBrighter, lighterWashed of winters wasteSunlight prismedOn hosed pathI am imprisonedIn a gardenOf my own growthOf stagnant cabbage boredomI am alive outsideBut withinThe naked sun has not yet reachedThe clenched teeth of my pussyWhich holds tightThe memory of your last delight.This is springInterspersed with snippets of sunI await the glow of summer onMy autumnal body

Thanks Lyz

A dentist sounds ideal, got to keep an eye on oral hygene...as long as he is dumb to the words of poetry, in fact he doesn't need to speak at all!Ha ha Seabhac

Hello you two

Glad to see you come up for air occasionally The needs of poets, too big a topic here but I had Ann’s words ringing in my ears and could empathise where she had been when she wished to shave her head and become a nun. Funny how words can ride with you on the journey and make themselves heard when appropriate. You two make it possible to believe that poets can love. Thanks for that positive affirmation Seabhac
