ghost ship

dark thoughts on a saturday
thinking of our father
chop wood, paint fence,
dig a pool for water
a gaggle of ducks
fly east across my window
good luck in attending
to seagoing vessels
i called a psychic, late this morning
i was brooding on fears
about my appearance
why do people hate me
he told me its the money,
you have a financial future
and thats all he could promise.

  1. i am on a higher plain to day in terms of my thoughts, and have been dreaming up a story based on the funship moored up near mostyn in wales. i clearly remember it steaming off, up river several years ago. i was watching from the banks of thusaston. its like some mysterious spectre has appeared in my dream world telling me of an impossible feat of great difficulty!
