November 4th
The irritant geese in their stale formation-
blind Kay trying to pin his broken mind
on the ice floor of a grandiose metaphor
The chirruping messages of the yew trees
a dumbshow ; goldcrests tilting and skirmishing
amid the blood red of fairytales
everything is a snipping and unpicking
those that don’t feel it
have missed the needle’s point.
