    the sunflower
    shouldering the moon
    bides its time

    tradies talk
    over drinks
    cigarettes wave
    like a live weld

    remember my love,

    shelter yourself well

  8. He definitely needs a consideration...homelessness is a sad reality...and it only takes an earthquake to find many big homeowners homeless on the streets

    i like the way you said it with a tinge of humour, Dalloway

  12. Excellent. Homeless people can have so much humour that they gently despair at our take on life. They are the most undeserving of hard times, and have that sad insight into what we have, and what we miss that we have.

    all my best,

    landing shadows/falling leaf

    my vespertine short winged carrier bird
    may you release the floating chords of fall
    from whence the delectable break once heard
    starts journey the fabric to autumn shawl.

    to this earth the gift you bestow of plume
    feather of a bird when the sun does choose
    shines dark by choice through the loss of the moon
    for true beauty needs cast her shadow too

    BIG ISSUE

    the big issue
    magazine cover
    holds the face

    of the man selling it.
    he walks with
    a copy held

    shoulder high
    looking to all
    like siamese twins.
