The past year or so it has seemed natural for me to write 6 verse sequences. They seem to have just the right size for the train of thought I have atm. A book of such was published earlier this year at Otata (https://otatablog.files.wordpress.co...rds-e-book.pdf). Here's another one dated 28.04 2019
a wave of moths breaking sand down to blisters
the swelling of your eye negates a spoon on the table at 3 o'clock
rust surfaces where you left the word 'shoulder'
promise you'll hover with me outside The Cave of Hammers, Elijah
while the rain falls I trim the nails on the hand of light
in your armour of breast milk you watch a mustard field ascend to heaven
.
