Towing my brain into Towyn, aiming for something static to keep my thoughts from lagging behind my actions, from drifting off and taking on a form of their own or, worse, from sprinting on ahead of my slowing feet, I take the long road, slicing a cuboid city into two identical halves, myContinue reading “Savvy Poem – Towyn Trailer”

Savvy Poem – Chronoclastic
Time crushed into a Friday night, knowing that, on Saturday, one has to start thinking about structure – about the starters, mains and plenaries, the beginnings, middles and endings, that will form the basis of the plans, that, on Sunday, you will churn out, ready for the weekday lives that you are expected to giveContinue reading “Savvy Poem – Chronoclastic”
Silly Poem – Mind
I never mind them. Not much. And I don’t mind not minding them. Not at all. Why then, do they mind me not minding them? That, I mind! And is that wrong? No, not to my mind. As the only mind, to me, that I mind minding, is my mind. So,Continue reading “Silly Poem – Mind”

Savvy Story – Carapace
She paces. Two forward, one back; three forward, one back; for forward, one back. And, in this way, she picks up her pace, each time, getting a little bit further. As others, get further, they actually get closer – closer to a goal, to someone else’s goal – a goal that someone else set, forContinue reading “Savvy Story – Carapace”
Savvy Poem – Inchoate
I choke, on the words that I am expected to suck in, to believe. I chew, on the words for just a short while, before I spit Continue reading “Savvy Poem – Inchoate”
Silly Poem – Narcissistic Haiku

Edges
The edges of me have holes in. Gaps in the fortifications, making it easier for you – to ping your view of me, into the spaces, thinking to make your mark, but I’ve played your table games before, in other places, with other players, and your view of me, pings back, at you –Continue reading “Edges”
