I wonder why there’s no #interaction on this site? It’s quite #bizarre, considering it’s similar people posting similar things. For example, I posted one thing on here and the same thing on Elon’s place and Post. Lots of engagement elsewhere but nothing here.

The void doesn’t seem to be looking back.

Schrödinger’s Mother

remembering the date,
wondering what became of you

what would have been
if only it could have been different

an umbilical link, mourned, silenced,
unforgotten

just something in your eye
“Cheer up, hen, it’ll never happen!”

Filling the void, unacceptably
while others display their cards and flowers

She is a hieroglyph, my hound

An Abuwtiyuw surveying her territory with cocked ears

or arched into downward dog in the pretence of submission

Shona’s ear-shake oscillates through shoulders, hips and tail

into a crescendo of movement

her usual silence becomes a cry of resentment, in the park –

Squirrel! Can’t you see?
Squirrel!

At night though, in repose,

her tongue lolls and paws mimic running

as she fantasises about battles and banquets

the next day will bring.
