from the shipwreck of my past

__________They live lives that might as well have been granted
by some fairy tale ring
Unlimited riches
impunity from the law
immortality
Yet instead of gratitude
generosity
any hint of joy
All they seem to feel is misery
and resentment
in the bitter petty emptiness
of their infinitely withered hearts

maybe a mile or so
Fill a seagull up with discarded chips
stolen sandwich crusts
and the uneaten ends of ice cream cones
And it’ll be able to fly a quarter of the way round the world
just to scream at you
for more
