flooded red brick ruins -
a dream landscape I swim through -
drip - ripples - green - blue

get plenty of sleep
and swim in the chocolate
river of dreams - milk

noisy students next
door - my karmic comeuppance
for when I was one

blisters on my feet -
pierce with a knife and watch clear
fluid emerge - soft

sand - driftwood - shells - dunes -
waves - gulls - warmth - sailing boats - breeze -
spinnaker - water

seduce the rainbow
and wrap the sunlight inside
a memory - tea

wrapped in silence - a
duvet of dark warmth - holding
me tenderly - black
