1990 Till Tomorrow

Accident, screaming, Red Cross, blood is black.

Flying, white - washed stains all clear,

Supportive metal,

Plaster - master ... Fix.

The early ghost is delivering life in a capsule.

Silent ... Silence ... Spoken,

'Keep it down', rest asleep

For talk to come in visit,

Awoken drowsy, recognise, smiling, strain,

'Happy to ', black.

Cards in typical format on white.

Glance, relax, its time

Afternoon spirits swallow, gulp,

Awake; awake, alone - but flowers.

Dark, reflective walls, silent noises,

Wheeze, cough, snore,

Ignore

Sleepless breathing

Tense, relax, stare ...

Covers so perfect

Lids down in a gluey lock

Sleep or death

Till tomorrow
