I like the lines It carries on the wind like a deep-throated crow, presses silence away from the spire and cottages. Weaving between mo...

The bike
He got to work and parked his bike
just like every other day but
according to bicycle parking regulations this was the day his bicycle parking permit ran
out.
“Should I get a permit or shall I just risk it?”
he asked himself, feeling quite the buccaneer.

Flight from Aquitaine
Flight from Aquitaine I woke in the air of the antiseptic pine in Aquitaine hard by the scouring sea, at Arcachon, where the mussels lie and the kelp and the wrack repent under the drying sun by the shore, and being France every palatable whelk had scarcely an hour before its appointment at lunch. I...

Somebody's Child
Somebody’s Child Time carries them off one way or the other, they all go. Some to make something of their chances, some to dances, while you make believe, spinning tales of nothing. Led to water, they sip, unconvinced. Hearts beat, veins in a stringed instrument, somebody’s child is dancing in the n...

Somebody should post a review for you, so it'll be me. It's a bit of a rough review though. The thing of it is, how involved do I feel with this and where does it go? I don't have an argument with personal statements, but sometimes they turn out so idiosyncratic that one has few points of reference....

Will dump WYSIWYG. I believe if enough people think something, it's probably right. It was only there as a side swipe or more accurately an arc between apeman and computers. I'm very impressed that most recognised archaeology in there. Not the case in many forums believe me. Although I thought it wa...

The Book of Numbers
The Book of Numbers Why do islands come in threes and divinities confer in triplicate? What triameter, propelled the “Word” and in what dialect was it heard in human time?
