Polynesian directness
Why don't you live together?
What's stopping you?
Why?
Anything we said
sounded weak but I remember talking to
Albert at a crossroad.
His wisdom -
Family is what matters.
Passion only lasts about
six months.
And we keep on convincing ourselves
Albert's wrong.
It's been x amount of months.
There is a family.
with all the attachments
And in another
country
a tiny grandchild.
Last night was Polynesian family night.
The babies and grandchildren
ever present
He said it made him feel
barren.
This morning I looked again
for the blood.
making love on the lawn
in front of an old bach
We turned back
to Spyve cottage
I've loved this place since
the first time 1 saw it
Nobody bothers anybody
pines topple the sun sets
and lovers entwine
