Emerging
dreamscapes
Take a butcher’s hook
and winch yourself up to
the highest height.
Taking flight.
Get as high as a kite
if you like
or if you’re a Scot(t),
I know at least three,
you may scheme and plot
or dream a lot
of the Highland Games.
I won’t name names
but the brains of the outfit
is up in the grid
philosophising
like Sir Isaac Newton
cooking the books
in which the old school rules
no longer apply
defying the laws of gravity
and levity
as Adam’s apple
falls on a diagonal plane
and gets entangled
in the right-angled loom
upended by the weaver.
A cross artform cantilever
and then back to earth again.
Happy Birthday Lindsey and Scott
