Stop! Go away! Shut up! It’s not going to make me any faster, if you keep shouting at me… … if you keep telling me to get ready! It’s not going to make me any faster, if you tell me to brush my teeth, or find my PE kit. I’ve still got to get ready,Continue reading “Savvy Poem – This is Important”

Savvy Poem – Boulder Dough
Climate change, trolls, homophobia and racism dominate the news. Is this refreshing, not to hear about Brexit? Or, does it all roll in together – all kneaded up in a lump of dough – until, ball-like, it’s pushed nudged down, until it crushes us.

Savvy Poem – The Exhumation
An old coal, gone white, c r u m b l e, shovelled into the expectation of an existence, that sees, only, the dust of its expiration.

Silly Poem – To Be Eaten
A response to Joseph Auslander’s poem: In Envy of Cows Why poeticize about the non-life of a cow, and why the envy? As the cow tastes the edge of August, it licks at the knife edge – that turns the flavour of lush pastures into offal. Tongue fed to the September dogs that yesterday nipped atContinue reading “Silly Poem – To Be Eaten”
Savvy Poem – The Conwy Worm
Drawbridge up – forever closed, we hear the tune, and follow. No choice, but to burrow under. No alternative, but to root ourselves in for the long haul. I feel the sharpness of the spade as it chops this worm in two regurgitating us forward into the light, asContinue reading “Savvy Poem – The Conwy Worm”

Savvy Poem – Enhancement
Taking a chance, I burrow into the furrows of my freckle-spattered skin, digging out the white-grey hairs to display them, proudly, alongside any golden reminders of another me. There are so many versions of myself, in evidence still – each one as worthy of existence, as the one before that lingers, hanging onContinue reading “Savvy Poem – Enhancement”
Savvy Poem – Worthlessness
Am I worth less than a life that is half my age? If that is the case, then why do they double me up, paying me twice as much as my younger self, only to then let go of my worthlessness – to save themselves from the cost of my pricelessness?
