that toil on without question
loved ones are worth it

inFrogs’ mass choir goes live
launches proud cacophony
senile dwarf directs
Titania is cross
summons entire bewinged throng
to back up concert
Confusion galore
but a fair wand swish restores
garden peace at last

Feel the island breeze
don’t mix work with holiday
make the fun thorough
A lesson learned: when you are on holiday, slow down on the business and pleasure combo. A lappy is also too much detail for hats, spun rayon skirts and flip flops. Those are my sad knees on the screen. By the time I thought of dumping work, my friends were too far off the other side of Elephant Island.

Mourners play mahjong
roadside wake in progress
coins fill the alms jar
There is ginger tea
unnecessary wailing
bright bulbs like searchlight
Huge truck loses brakes
crashes hut, plows the coffin
poor dead dies again

Lanky l’s, thin t’s
on scented stationery
illegible script
sweet love scribbles like
chicken claw scratches on soil
he’s now a surgeon
A quick trip down memory lane: He was seventeen. I was sixteen. His letters showed hints that he was poised to become a doctor. He sent roses…. We drifted apart. It was tough. But like everything else you get over it.
Fast forward to 2012: He sent me a brief note. Probably written during a break in a 16-hour shift. This time it was absolutely legible. Facebook does wonders ;p
