about

Hello C how are you? I was wondering if I could say something to you try not to draw breath feel bad any­­­­­thing at all T will be served shortly a little patch of time to spare what was alive strange as it is here keep it ­going give this forever go nowhere to change course terribly tired spokesman over­hearing a flow of conversation a play two characters psychiatrist patient no brain inside head no letter L an alphabet missing a letter strange as it may be if little more enter­­tainment to keep ­going than two pennies worth of electricity plus myriad ­letters flow like air pressure tap set yourself a page translate it into shape a colour­ful life referring to characters come together incredible spoof observe what is happening imagine to create the world saturday salt air on air brightening sun illuminating from ­behind the landscape of my bedspread white duvet cover white towel shoulders book bedside glass ­tumblers one on its head a lamp found a chest of drawers a trolley loaded outside with cups awake fighting jagged dreams of watchfulness shards more lifelike as the bed spreads beautifully fades to grey the mount­ains birds out back the window behind my back who knows what will become of us where will we go from here
