Thrashy poem

Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)

Free verse
Scruffily scraps digest in our heads as the wait for better better better aches our hearts
Pickings from the richness of life
Sifted granules of matters factual and fictional
Wishes blended into the everyday common sense
Screws shining on the paved semblances left of man and machine
Dribbles of beauty on stained garments
Trash more and more of it
Rubbled art in a Gods world
Shining sun on broken roofs
Yet to be splendorous
Yet to be reordered
Yet to be rebuilt
Earthquakes
