If I could fly, what would change
I would still be here
imprisoned
not by walls
but by my own
broken
dreams

hot, isn’t it

blackbirds drinking
in the haze of summer
from dog bowls
and sprinklered puddles

gulls spiralling in updrafts
above the melting roads
feeding on clouds
of winged ants

and in the gardens
everyone
dead in the sun

Butterflies locked
in their helical dance
above sun-yellowed grass

The science fiction section in the bookshop
shrinks
weekly

locked now
in the dystopian loop
of its own extinction

moon

there’s a moon out there
half eaten by dark
the rest as red as blood
