12th June 2019

no photographs, please
almost midsummer
and we have the heating on
local river in flood

the offspring
composes portmanteaus
accidentally
while on rants about YouTube users
and socaial commenters.
They talk in staccato.
Static Shouts
like an idling chainsaw
that makes the dog bark.
keeping to themselves
they become nocturnal
subsisting on alcohol and ice cream
while heavy curtains
give the upper storey room
a basement air.
