Indulging In Spring
At least in his own eyes being The Oracle of
Delphi, he declaims ‘look for the positive in
your experience’ - I decide this gives me leave
to purchase more purple flowers to bring the
feeling of a colourful spring into the office
Like a wilting willow tree sitting buoyed by various
devices – sides of a rubber hot water bottle changed
my seat into a purple stronghold – awaiting lunch
hour patiently to escape and indulge in the colours
and textures of spring on offer outside
The sun has been weakened by clouds, jacaranda
trees threatening to burst into purple waterfalls,
a few shops there in which to aimlessly browse for
the simple delight of discovering interesting objects
I would never buy
High-heeled shoes, handbags, flowery dresses
soft evening gowns with shiny bodices, new
styles in sandals and the finest scarves with
glittery lines – if I were a millionaire I would
buy up the shops and play with everything
Just to put them back feeling relieved that
I do not have to take care of anything
Lose My Head
My headache lifts completely when I think of
lovely entities, pain seems psychosomatic
and controlled as long as I set my mind on
finding intriguing things
Found slip-on platforms to wear at work, hair
colour spray, coke zero - also bought a purple
flower, preparing slyly to abide the great
purple fall colour explosion in tune with
Jacarandas outside; these heavenly touches
change life into a dream, I am going to hunt for
the Nutcracker ballet on DVD and watch it taking
in sugar plum fairies and mouse kings
Accompanied by the sweetest music humans
ever produced, Tchaikovsky was scared of losing
his head while conducting - maybe he felt the
magic in music would cost him his mind
I feel the same, I would love to lose my head and
change into a melody, existing as vibrations in air
would bring about an existence of eternal bliss
and release…
