Sax Alone

Another new poem from To Sire, With Love- evoking the noir-soul of another sonorous and balmy night in Florida. Cheers!

to sire with love

The lyrical child within,
Adores and cherishes,
Finding a new melodious surprise.

Ambling along a quiet lane,
Unveils a somber scene-
Sax ending at closing.

The club empty,
Clientele all departed,
Tunes drift quietly to silence.

Instrument drops, amp still glowing-
Another gig, consummated,
silence now reigns supreme.

I can imagine,
Him gently packing
away his trademark tool.

And shimmering out the back,
to melt into the late night
Darkness.

Disheveled Night- Through Peccable Eyes

Disheveled night

To peer through peccable eyes

The restive rebel

Curled up inside

This sweating mind

Warbling words

Driveling through a soggy grin

Tepid brow nestling into the grit

Of neon-washed, city-skin

Uvid and mucid

This life therein

Dank and dainty

Delicate, it drifts

Dastardly light

That sweeps and swims

In coal-coloured eyes

That leer with a limp

And in smoky shame

Still long to live

This Sky Shan’t Inherit any Stars Tonight

“You know, I’d almost forgotten what your eyes looked like. Still the same. Pissholes in the snow.”
– From the film “Get Carter”

“See the smoke trembling under the roof as if with fright? Yet when it gets out in the air, it has the whole sky to swirl about in. But it doesn’t know that, so it huddles and trembles in the soot under the roof. It’s the same with people. They quiver like a leaf in the storm, afraid of what they know and what they don’t know.”
– From the film “The Virgin Spring” (“Jungfrukällan”)

A Shrewd Grief

  Barbed malevolence

A shrewd and blunt Grief

That his somber Absence

Should foster such Relief
