These Cirrus words alter in gusts of light. Breath from unknown, alien ways of inhale and exhale enrich the air and blood of the sky's page. Invasion refreshes shape of sight, of clarity, struggles with stubborn purity and permanence. Cumulonimbus rains through light empties to blankness that is not blankness

A Needle light shivers on a cobweb strand between curved lace frills of a woven white table cloth in a spring front room. Glare of harsh words incandescent behind watery eyes focus on insignificant details each of us folds our legs away from the other below the radio songs below the doppler of cars and people outside waves break up sunglint on a pebbled shore

Destination Last summer trips to Richmond Park a short path to cakes and coffee Your pale cool skin, delicate and soft like my own mum’s but she was love Three disparate people like marbles rolling down a run the destination certainty travelling in silence best unsaid Dad used to have leather-spots To me still dad, they told me stories fighter pilot, airline captain love, laughter, a tea-cosy hat unexpected bouts of wisdom You can read their stories in pale skin time is marking mine when you get enough spots it calls your name even the savage wounds lovers leave translucent through the hurt come to nothing Matt Guntrip
