returning home handsome
and you are city-smart
pony tail, black jacket
perfect haemoglobin nails
not too long, waiting
with your mother in her
damson beret at the airport
attentive at the table
listening to her with sheer
ankle socks – well, they’re
practical! – such strong feet
stood up out of comfortable
slipper-shoes – heel arch
ball knuckle toe pointed
or fabulously wrinkled with
every parenthesis – that they
do not realise I am writing
this poem, and don’t need to,
with concluding laugh

awareness wormhole: and smile / like a bud
being & city & muse wormhole: “The Lady from Nowhere”
black wormhole: the 19th century
daughter wormhole: finding my own true nature – Plumstead, Woolwich, 190915
feet wormhole: reaching branch
listening wormhole: Lapping Reflections [Deep Within Waters] – … as the new town marches in
mother wormhole: hello, luvvey, do you want a cup of tea?
red & table wormhole: magnificent salad

Ah, “stealth poetry and ankle socks,” new weapons in the war against the Philistines. Nice.
