    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


    Geology

    Walking, I passed between stones
    unnoticed leaving left and right
    divided by geography.
    An accident of place or time?
    It wasn't clear but crystalline.
    My hemispheres are cut through.
    Thought is hard and ordered,
    slow; blood seems
    an unnecessary fluid,
    heart beats a series
    of shocks across
    tectonic continents of skin.

  • Reality Is Gone

    Reality Is Gone
    Dec 14 2024

    These are a few poems written over the past couple of weeks. I'm not sure if they are about anything, except perhaps my reaction to the passage of thoughts and emotions within myself and a reaction to the places in which I find myself.
    The duality of internal and external worlds seems very relevant at this time in our culture and at this moment of big global change.

    Awoke to a head full of histories. The birds here are going doolally for new blossoms in the trees around the house, feeding chicks, drinking heavily on nectar, facing the day as it arrives. Thought that I should try and do the same.

    This is a short poem written looking across at Kapiti Island north of Wellington in New Zealand. Heavily influenced by jet-lag and what has been a very curious year for me.
