Like the girl on TV, ‘Miss Celebrity’
Coming back to me
Deep in thought
as I navigate the night reading
Hoping she saw up there ‘flyers’.
“Miss, I tell you
the whole extent is wonderful
Downned in one gulp,
In many dreams as one,
Migrating somewhere, some place
your curves on the fuselage of chartered light
in the wide but visible unknown of hide and seek”.
Up here
……with soap, clean linen, hotel ‘a la carte’
and in the sunlight stroke between “them” –
pale, smoke
and glassed
horizons that fiercely burnt this last light
(and life)
With heat stroke.
Where it’s always light but breathless
And glows green/white –
To the end of ‘all seeing’
Of the-not-seeing-under-control-rountine.
Finally migrating away.
in airless flight
Both senseless and simulated.
Lowering a wing inward.
With the world alight as we make this final approach
To think of her smile,
The screen ahead fusing itself
With this vision
And the next.
