not raining
on the untrimmed willow
blue tits

untidy desk
where things need putting away
of giving away.
Anyone want a wireless cam?
a ladies' razor? a fitness watch?
How about a USB-charged vibrator?
a set of butt plugs in glorious stainless steel?
a rechargeable hand warmer?
There's a box of acrylic inks,
earmarked for a memory painting;
a brand-new electric toothbrush;
a box of several hundred piercing jewellery
I can't find the lid to,
and a study guide to the works
of the late Iain Banks
the greatest writer of the Isles.
