Justice, Death & Vertitas

Evil destroys good Nuanced characters as wellOr so it appearsGood old yin and yang Turn out to be no defence When facing evil That certain man whoI hope we never do meetYou know who I mean

Beauty, amended

I watched you do your makeupOn the journey into townA complicated ritualFor you are almost grown It’s different nowadaysIn the modern centuryIt’s all about the contouring To be flawless, glowy I looked on, fascinated Natural colours, blendedAll the brushes and the spongesAnd beauty amended Makeup is ammunitionSelf-expression and self-careOr a mask, perhaps a disguise…

Political reflections

I do not usually engage in politics at all, on this site or elsewhere. But we live in unusual times and these words and thoughts need to come out somewhere. I think there is hope, if our leaders show some courage. But we all have to be strong and know that the right decisions are not always the easy ones.

A poem I didn’t write myself

I lost my lovely Mum in the spring of 2020. I'm still going through the photos and mementoes of her life and I found this little white box tucked away with some old photographs. Mum and Dad got married in 1965. It seems Mum left her civil service job when she married although she was not legally required to do so (that law was abolished in 1946).

How to become a tree

Surrounded by dark verdancyAn ancient lamppost stoodAdmiring the forest He one day decided That he would become treeAlthough standing all around himThe trees refused to helpJust rustled in alarmAs he slowly beganTo learn how to have rootsMetal tendrils into dark soilHe felt them soften, thenOrganic, drink waterSweetest nutrition from…

Magic

There is magic in the world We feel it every day There is magic in music In art, and in play When your mother shows you The possibility How to reach out your mind And feel the sea But when approaching The old wall from East Berlin You feel a bloody chasm And so the tears begin And the love that you feel…
