Monday 4th February

THE MAN IN A SLING: 
 
He walks in the sun swathed in yellow, smiling.
Caught in the reflection of a rear view mirror 
looking radiant, content. The black top turns
wet & silver, luminous in the glare of the morning
sun & I let it draw me in, loosing perspective, 
everything turns 2D. The hedges, slip past constantly 
peripheral dancing – sweet sensation. 
Sticks, cut brutal by the lash of machines lie 
broken toothed in ditches, turn their faces up 
at the sun & smile. I drive purposefully slow today 
squeezing pleasure out’ve every curve in the road,
turn the radio off & smile, listening to wind.
