Morning Poem, Carlton, Winter, 25.7.25

  Morning Poem, Carlton, Winter, 25.7.25   It’s still, this morning You don’t hear the few birds caroling As much usually Must be nearly Spring I must admit the ducks The other day Were looking very fresh & crisp Like they’re growing their fashionista feathers     Published & Copyright Malachi Doyle 2025.

Short version of a Bangin day!

  Short version of a Bangin day! (for Yaru) How are ya cobber? Had a bangin day today on a wild goose chase to see my doctor.  He cancelled at the last minute But I got a fresh shucked oyster & a Tasmanian & an Irish whiskey for free for 3 people, a bangin conversation with a Nepalese guy who said, we both agreed, that God is in everyone.

The counting machine

  The counting machine   My muse is eclipsed by a feeling, hearing Murders of sacred beings discussed By ‘clever’ people as numbers,   Same as slavers talking of their ‘cargo.’   We’re so used to hearing it We do not think it strange,   Till someone we loved becomes a statistic – Unnamed, unpictured, life untold,   Just a number.     Published & Copyright Malachi Doyle 2025.
