Cheers P pavement layer this morning!! -----Original Message----- From: Poetryetc: poetry and poetics [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Bill Wootton Sent: 10 April 2013 08:35 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Snapping at snaps clusters of bright blue memories confined, glowingly accessible at the caress of a forefinger - flickable, manipulable eye-seen, fixed; no need to grasp and clutch at what forms up in the re-forming mind these memories come pre-packaged, framed, pressed into bordered service; pillared temples, flushed faces, crisp leaves - all are accorded that smooth flat glow denying the rasp of textures, prick of pungencies, barrage of clatter and hum; where be sudden delights, gut rumbles?
