Poetry
a night in the life of a moon-shunner
They shun the Moon its Magic beams then sleep in overlapping dreams of a world without Wolves safe from harm or scare then they wake up like a lightning bolt & check their palms for hair ...
behind closed doors
What lies in store behind closed doors they're magical places surprises galore ? Who knows from here our thoughts are extraneous; a battered old garden or a Narnia for atheists ? ...
puddle power
Yes Puddles are alive in a variety of shapey-sizes from 1 droplet of Puddle-Stuff to 2 thirds of the Earth. The bits that stagger Puddles are classed as 'Streams' 'Big Streams' or 'Land' strange heathen places despised by Ye Gods so everyday these Puddles EXPAND ...
