WHAT'S THIS?

Having been immersed in memoir writing for many months, I decided to write a small poem every day for a year to keep my poetic hand in. I've posted them to Instagram and facebook as written – where, to my amazement, people love them – but on this blog they are sometimes subject to later rewriting.

An artist friend at my side ...


An artist friend at my side,

seeing an artist’s life on screen, 

the little art cinema empty

but for us, so we can speak

our thrill at textures, lines –

our impatience with the stupider

parts of the commentary. We drink

caramel milkshakes, eat spring rolls

with chilli sauce. My friend’s mind 

and her words flit fast and light.
