The Physics of desire - Part 1

The Physics of Desire part 1


Floods of cablecars tumbling down
,.. Remote access to hidden towns.
Under the fields where the barley grows,
the crucibles of red iron flow
Archaic medicines offer their name,
to rectify imbalance causing your pain.
Shire horse plodding leaving the groove, ..
trampling crisp snowflake beneath the hoof...
Sitting beneath that well known tree
I merge with the air that no one can see

Clasping like hands my eyes catch the bees
that I snatch from memory with casual ease,
Monitoring events on invisible screens
no control to pause, rewind,.. it seems.
In a channel of atoms dragged tide like along,
I sense where the hope lies, within this song.

Peter McB 21st century writings June 2006
