for you fuzzy, who can't really float around free outside now, but can inside still. to evolution and the death of absolutes and change for you, shup. to jo my dear probably sunning somewhere. oh no.. are you alone at your place fuzzy? don't trust the nhs!!


Stripped
you're beginning to float free
up through the smoke of bushfires
and incinerators
the unleafed branches won't hold you
nor the radar aerials

You're what the autumn knew would happen
after the last collapse
of primary colour
once the last absolutes were torn to pieces
you could begin

How you broke open, what sheathed you
until this moment
I know nothing about it
my ignorance of you amazes me
now that I watch you
starting to give yourself
away to the wind

(Adrienne Rich)
