Loved the undies David! Meanwhile until the next exciting instalment from Louise here's another poem. Sorry if it's serious but that's the mood I'm in - despite a couple of glasses of wine!!
TravellingEnnis leaves the trailer
moving on, travelling
Jack is twice lost
Turning to bitter iron
grief and longing
Wailing round his grave
a battering rage, boxed in
The fading image
over and over recited
The same love
The same
The same
Never allowed past the fence
of memory
An old cold time
over and over recited
The same love
The same
The same
Death defied at the boundary
of knowing
Beyond Jack
a void
Better by far
to hold on
Denying the cold
the shuddering shirts
an absence
Keeping the known world
together
And if not the flesh then the
memory
Anything
But not this
changing, passing on
this travelling………..
