On dim. On blue. On cold.
Settled stipple the quiet night through
Crowded car top patches frozen up
Crinchy-crunch down
–Delight–
Perceivers by smoke headlit waits at lights
As fell foots fall on white, white, white...
Work pulls, drear demand,
On school runs mums safety
Passing chaos energy. And back.
Inhales of sharp smart sparkler
Dog poo park steam
On silver-edge maple leaves curl
–Pattern–
Shoe heel cuff crush
Melty dark on tread tyres passing
Blattercast left, blithercast right,
Until greying frowns line each road, lane, avenue,
The sunless cliffs in tectonic ribs unseen
Drain. Drain down. Drain off.
Darker than weightiest clouds,
–Gone–
