Blog poem

In the small of the mornings
I wake - sharpened arrows
of consciousness cocked at the day.
Penetrated words play out
their trajectory in the way
uncontrived constellations
fall from the sky.
Reflected floating driftwood
of meanings on the sea
of my imaginings,
wash up on a string of days
on this my shore:
Old Yellow Moon.

Threaded torn pieces
of mind's tissue-material
bagged, tagged and categorised.

These passing emotions 

drawn bow to target, 
fired and dropped to the page.
Piecemeal lurkings 
and snippets 
of collected imaginings, 
dreams or fantasies.
Realities perhaps 
succinct and distilled...
A muffled collated
rendering of my world.
