If only
Memories ringing
Draughty shed
Leather scents
If only my grandfather
Could reach for the phone

A moment to hold the briefcase

Clenched

And look up

Shoppers on a mission for

Must have accessories

Text to text

Words
Travelling light

All connected by gaffa tape webs of

Oily inflation

(Imaginary of course)

And those who dare to dream
Another reality

May only see

Some pseudo

Heavenly stairway

In pseudo sunlight

A hunk of

Empty
Lifeless

Shiny metal

On the move

New pilgrims to a new Canterbury?

(P.S. I just have music in my ears!)

NOTE: hedgewitch's response this week rocked me!
The title of her post is Blue Nowhere.
A blue wind wheeling to a blue nowhere! Like a tinted reality! This beautiful poem scoops up the senses and lets them flounder, delirious in a delicious nowhere!

I eke out my days
Fashioned in yesterday's styles
Expression on ice

Curiosity
Weathering in weathered worlds
Like a lone watcher

Birds seem to need me
Passing perch for passing dreams
It's good to feel life

Sometimes I'm lucky
Wings cast a halo of light
I so want to smile

Eroded living
Rocky memories cluster
Birth of new beauty

Open boundary
Landscapes in focal fragment
New unchartered frame

I was there awhile
A small stone like a small cairn
Perhaps you'll find me

NOTE: If you would like to experience a wilder rollercoaster ride, read
Dustus' Entering Threshold.
My comment on his post: Dynamic! Like a torrent of literary minds and raw adventurers and those who need acting in their lives! All falling in some mesmerising heap leaving a mass grave at some threshold! This rattled me in an exhilerating way!

Gritty sand footprints
Inverted to
Dummy
Burial mounds become
Intimidating ancestors

Reeled into the vortex of your moment

Your wine
Stilling my
Alternative realities

The simmering
Seering aura of
Your dark beauty
Mischievously
Unwrapping
My secrets

I feel like a goddess
Discovered
Elevated
Elated

Dancing in
The shamanic whirls of your
Exotic cigars

Us

Shadow connections
Smoothing corrugated worlds
Our secret mural

Our different shoes
Prime points in a pyramid
A frame for our souls

Facing each other
Shaping lone spaces with love
As one in blue jeans

Translucent veiled yesterdays
