When my mind tangles up
and i can’t get a grasp
i move into the now
5am
Orange cat Saffi sleeping on a stool
Sun rays rising slipping through green
thin stretched clouds balancing
Early morning ‘you hoo’
Bust pipe hissing
Bright’s voice rising, “Theo you tire flat.”
Theo, “that’s nothing. Its early still.”
Alkaline singing through car window passing
Wet nose dog nudging
Theo pedaling on pink BMX gliding
Crickets fading birds replacing
Finger tips reaching
Pen scratching
Elder dog yawning
Coffee burning
Mango thumping
One long lazy meow
from Tom cat Simon
