10th May 2021

 



slivers of sunlight

peering through moving clouds

inland gulls

Early nineties

I bought a CD Walkman from a pawn shop;

attached it to my hifi separates

and recorded CDs from the library.

My music collection blossomed;

became eclectic

settled in my psyche.


Philip Glass' Satyagraha

will forever remind me of the flat in Stubbs Road

with the morning sun flushing the living room

before I headed to the opening shift at the car park.

Dungeons and Dragons on a Thursday night

cold schnapps and warm wine

and the complex social dynamics

of swapping girlfriends.
