every room electric light

reality t.v.
he wonders if it’s tuesday

neighbour
at the door, another jar
she can’t open /sw

her secret passion

datura noir and
white camellia

seeping through
Victorian atomisers
hidden in a hope chest /ha

lingering scent

he fingers the reminder
of last night’s loving

ghosts entwine
beneath the indigo lake –
remembering her warmth /rm

something rusted like a cloud

north wind
the ‘sale’ board faded stoops

yet in the orchard
daffodils, more than before
sun yellow /sw

the moon sinks

rising from the trees
a certain coolness

at day’s end —
Darjeeling steeps
into deep amber /ha

office block

as darkness creeps
she works alone

only a love-sick cat
and frozen sheets
to call home /rm
