Isolation

Back-seat.
Isolation.
Elevated.
Absence of old-dear smiles!
Lens-wipes.
Indulgence …
An open book –
Words waiting
for absorption …
Rattles and bumps –
a soothing sound …
Concentration.
Perfection.

Damp hair,
unwashed and odorous.
Itchy sinuses,
Swishing leather straps,
resonant buckles and tags.
A dog-owner –
expectant, proud, seeks admiration,
a collaborative look,
mutual affection …

A shut book?

Forget it.

Shift and integrate…
Corner-seat shuffle,
reabsorb bum and self
into leather
and foam.
Become one.

Words wait ….

Freelance writer and descendant of the cave dweller and outlaw, Humphrey Kynaston. Banished from Shropshire for my eccentricity, I have made my home in Suffolk. I write poetry, short stories, travel journals, comedy gig reviews and non-fiction articles. My wish is to write my way back into the heart of my birth land. All writing commissions (and free holidays in Shropshire!) considered.
