1..
it felt at first like a twinge
a broken vein in a visage
then a meteor of blood curdling pain
brain tumour
collapse then anabiosis  - recovery
he had discovered the meaning of life
thanks to discovery of paper planes


2.





altruism is mainly defunct
replaced by papertiger personalities
and phoney lip servers
expounding love and kindness
the partition continually
growing ever wider
between rich and poor
begging bowls a familiar sight

                              a sprig
                           it looks like
                     a purple squashed hat
               worn by an old lady to church
           does not look appetising to me at all
       the only enticing thing about it is the  mint

Wherever You Will Go

in tough times if you're blessed
an angel will pop out of the blue
to lend a helping hand

he cannot stay forever
and when two feet are found
it's time to learn to walk again

wherever you will go
may happiness follow
that very brave heart
with joy in hot pursuit
gamboling and cavorting
all the way

Sunday Afternoon

pinched waists and bustles
on a hot afternoon walk
uncomfortable

 Fuyuko Tomita's Poem



How lonely I would be
left behind on my desk
an unfinished poem
in the glorious morning sun

Paloma's Response




at the bird feeder
three cardinals are squabbling
a love triangle?

the poem that nudges my ribs
is fading with laundry

Cressida's response


love triangle poems
her lines obliterated
by lipstick smears and tea stains
hidden in match boxes
all over the house

plunge leather chime straddle crevice alliance
justify combustible altitude trundle vision masticate

leather top
plunging neckline
a crevice
the titanic would get lost in
earrings the size of wind chimes
straddling a dance pole from high altitude
masticating gum


the men drooling flushed in
a combustible state of alcohol
blurred vision
justifying their presence
as part of a business alliance
trundling on home
to the suburban family
at the end of the day
