The Poetry of Naffy Naff

 
 I Wonder Sometimes

 
I wonder sometimes 
when it rains 
and I hear 
the night train whistle
if you are sitting at a table 
overlooking the sea
with your artwork
spread out around you 
perhaps writing
in a firm hand 
in your daybook

i wonder 
where that train would take us
if we were bound for glory
rather than tethered 
to this solitary existence 
which tests us with every
passing hail of thunder

 
For good measure
you pour out one
chill glass of wine 
and whet the whim 
of your intellect 
as you swirl a small
prayer on your tongue

 
The train has passed
a wind blows through the grass 
and into the house 
and it is time for us 
to sleep without recourse
