Fashions of Change
the world is shaped
by the fashions of change.
life is fashioned—
by their need for gain.
love is fashioned—
by want and pain.
god is always
mind perceived—
feel my soul,
and watch it leave.
the world is shaped
by fashions of space.
watch the star-living female,
so elegant, so full of grace.
as she kisses,
she leaves a wanting taste.
the world is shaped
by people’s minds.
the passing of time—
a silent place,
watches with
a furrowed face.
James Garratt – December 1992

Thank you 🙂 This is the earliest bits I have and this is when I started writing things down. So it’s nice to see ‘good bits’ in them 🙂 I was very young when I wrote this 🙂
