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.

I write a poem for today …


I write a poem for today.

It’s much too long. I add it 

to a different collection.


I try another, realise 

it invades a friend’s privacy 

(even though I don’t name them).


The hour is late. I promised

to send some people ‘absent’ Reiki.

I decide to leave poetry here for tonight.
