spirit

the allure of words.
taste and then vomit back up.
grateful deficit.

stumble and skin knees.
i’ll be there to help you up.
carrying you home.

ovo from the egg.
like the shape of a clown’s face.
colours red and green.

old man slow on paws.
no claws but sweet toothless grin.
live long furry friend.

unexplainable.
a riddle wrapped in brown shit.
smells like subterfuge.

in the corner stands
the man getting boots polished.
a glimpse of time gone.
