but,
that is not what happened
does information exist
only to fit our pattern

my car like wheels
slowed down
by the weight
of dog leg expectation

i have tried –
to capture sunshine
as best as i can
and i have tried,
to catch the rain
in my homemade cans

on social media
i do not follow people
i do not need to follow
and i do not join groups

society is complex
but –
people do not want complexity
lost –
in a personal reality

broken and damaged –
by their experiences
there trauma –
as evident
as their latent mood

i read about days
that went before
i wonder who i was
and i think about my care

when you kneel down –
to inspect the foundations
then –
you realise –
they are not there at all
