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 – Shrivelled
I shake off the lines that led me to this point, and, in the aftermath, I feel the smoothness of the surface of myself, whilst considering whether I really know where the point is. Is it at the sharp tip of my artist’s B pencil? Is it at the tip of my Hubby’s Roman beak?Continue reading “Savvy Poem – Shrivelled”
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”

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”
Savvy Book – The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake
Are you so in tune with the emotions of the people around you that, far from being savvy, you suffer from extreme anxiety? It’s bad enough to come over in all-consuming waves of worry over how someone else might feel about what someone else said, or even worse about what you said – you know,Continue reading “Savvy Book – The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake”
