Dan Bennett
Big Life Friend
a floor plan
for an imagined room
this is what it means
to survive heavy weather
red lights cascading
along the market high street
alley dangers &
outside
aphids
spiral
through
amazing rain
admit it: a vodka message
on a corporate note pad will never
fight the pain won’t act
as an obituary to
a certain chapter
of a tedious past
can
never
sum up
those
questions of geography
(in a white kitchen
she will read this she
will walk through
the frost glass
of an open door
she will
enter
the room)
this white kitchen
she is undressed
we cannot
register the rain
To draw the map
I
would fuse
the dull sky with
the outskirt forest
this is
(we are told)
never to be seen
