behind the blinds ( sdnilb eht dniheb )
…
behind the blinds, the blinds of blue
a shade the shade of shadeless shite
a scribble scrawls a line or two
a portal calls, a door of snorts
the hinges creak & snort in squeaks
a burst of birds, the splurge of thoughts
the chattering is back again
a caber toss of jollop's jape
a smattering of acid rain
beneath the sun, a couplet druns
the trah-luh-lars of handlebars
the fiddle dum of thumbs & crumbs
within a mist - a slip of tea
a storm the scent of peppermint
the stumble stuff of bumble me
as dawn's a yawn & all is pants
the parallax of paper plain
a pantomime, a dive, a dance
a pen, a pad, a wonky desk
a donkey on a thistled lea
the lottery of poemesque
so spiral then, the bends & winds
a broken biscuit symphony
the sound of down - behind the blinds
