watching
that woman, there, striding
away from the bench to
peer down the road-works
to see what they’re up to
in her ill-fitting sandals
heel lift and flick-in a little
with slim calves and Hampshire
lope and shuffle
with arms dangling hand-lazy
off sad-mouth shoulders and
shapeless jumper (that she
always wears these days) and
that mad puffball of grey
kept in check only, only by
sunglasses
that woman
married-with for thirty two years
through accumulating betters
and diminishing worses
off to cook a meal
because she’s got an idea
while I rest from the back
I pulled doing nothing significant
on a long short walk hands held
together
I love with all the history and lack of perfections at our command

Carol wormhole: hot summer / morning
doing & identity & life wormhole: the stance of Buscema // qualitatively
feet & walking wormhole: library: start where you are IV // all the distance I have travelled!
grey wormhole: 1963
hair wormhole: [start where you are III] – delve
hands wormhole: “King …”
looking wormhole: Totnes
love wormhole: letters to Mum VI – Years / after you have gone. Still.
Lovely
