When I first began to tell my story to the nurses in white and blue uniforms, it seemed strange to me that as I reached for the words to describe the images in my head, they slid out of focus and flickered past. They seemed to paint themselves in front of my eyes and writhe in shades of dull yellow and dirty, ugly grey, recounting the events of the last twenty four hours, whilst at the same time avoiding every movement I made to capture them with language. I wanted nothing more than to sleep away this nightmare. Yet the pictures in my mind, as if in an attempt to tease, snatched my tiredness away each t


Amongst The Old ThingsSo there he rests, gazing out Into sunny streets below, at the market Where people will sell new pottery For more than a rusty vase And children beg tired mothers To buy them lonely animals from cages. Occasionally, a slinky rat appears And nibbles at rotting remains Dropped by the young ones. He sits watching it all Tucked away in his drowsy room With hands dry like painful tree roots And ugly lines Gauged into a face that hides From colour and green new things.

Bindings bound you for a moment, But only once you see The flashing and flickering of fluttering light Leaving the sky and luring you along
