The ground hadn’t moved
But my soul’s foundation quaked
And my soles lost grip

"Imperfect".

Latest in a sequence "To Be Continued"; each starts with the last line of another poet's poem. (Very much a first draft.)

@sixtyoddpress.bsky.social

	(first line from John Curry's “Small Seconds” in "Odd" 1:3)


                                       the small seconds dropped into place
                                 snug in the spaces left for them

it’s in the calm before the storm
         that damage strikes
                                    and like the tingle in a tongue before a sneeze
                                                                                 the world fizzed
                                                                 each separated interval of time
                                                                                      a little bomb
                                                                                              exploding

                                                                                            recognition
                                                                        of the fear to come
                                                            days   weeks   months
                                           or even decades later

From unplumbed depths, a siren
Offering moist fruit

Exorcise the sin
Spirits clouded my mind with
Lies from Jenever

Upon the sin we maintain

"Ornamental Birds".

#poem #poetry #skypoets #blueskypoets #poetsofbluesky #poetrycommunity #writingcommunity

           wind through hollow bones
and melody is flung into a deep-blue
                                 cloudless sky
                     sweet feathered quavers
                                         flutter-tongued
                                                                the mordant trills drop
                                                            slowly          floating
                                                                          on the thickening air

	*

                                                 the sun is interrupted
                                                              by a ragged wing
                                                        casting a chill shadow
                                                                         as it slides and turns
                  spiralling down as the air cools
       shrilling cries like barbs in the eardrum
                                         seeking murder
                                                  somewhere in the West

	*

                                                 white-vaned death
                                      a tacit spectre in the haunted skies
                                                                glimpsed at their end
                                                                      by shaken victims
                                                Tyto non angeli sed alba
                          as the new moon glistens
                                  on rime-limed twigs

"Mary Wortley Montagu (1689–1762)".

From "Last Words", a sequence of poems each starting with the last words (sometimes apocryphal) of a well-known person.

#poem #poetry #skypoets #blueskypoets #poetsofbluesky #poetrycommunity #writingcommunity #lastwords

Mary Wortley Montagu (1689–1762)

        It has all been most interesting
                                       (if not always pleasant)
                             but this body
                       that has served me well
                                         from Nottingham
                                                  to the Ottomans
                           has turned on me at last
or rather
                    on itself
                                       and there is nothing
                             that inoculates us
                    against death

"Three Comparisons in Search of a Subject".

#poem #poetry #skypoets #blueskypoets #poetsofbluesky #poetrycommunity #writingcommunity

	i.

           like a dry river waiting for Winter
                        when down from the hills
                                               – fast-flowing, foaming –
                                flash flooding scours
                 the cluttered channel:
      fallen branches, wind-blown paper,
and leaf litter.


	ii.

                              like a shadow that’s been stolen
                yearning for the sun
                                  for anchorage
                          and for a third dimension
       waking up bereft
      “whose am I?”


	iii.

                                            like a comic anecdote
                                                    tried out for the first time
                                                            on a roomful of depressives
                                struggling to find a rhythm
                                                          pierce the fog
                  cause one mouth to twitch
                                           one eye to widen
                                                     in surprised amusement
