"random inaccess"
Letters describe a moment
where time stretches—
stairs growing longer
with each season,
yet the house doesn’t change.
Names slip—
spoken and lost,
like coins lost in a torn pocket—
clinking faintly in empty halls.
Mornings are misplaced,
slipped into tired afternoons.
The calendar lies blank,
scraped raw,
its edges powdered with erased plans.

empty nest
Stairs lengthen
with the seasons,
names slip like
coins in torn cloth.
A calendar lies scraped,
its edges powdered with absence.
Looking‑glass memory fogs,
reflections scatter into hollow rooms.
Between heartbeats—
quiet nestles within its cage.

Fight! Fight!
The magpies
nesting in the beech
began shouting
angry
to see a squirrel
in their tree
Attracted
like bad boys in the playground
more magpies
joined in
hopping from branch to branch
a harsh chatter
of anger
The squirrel
preferring a quiet life
left
by way of my garden
wall
Today the tree is silent
