The second of my collections of poems written for "Express It In Eight."
As usual these days, I choose blog format because it offers more space for the work.

Tree and colonised smaller tree.


Chip and Block

No need to stand alone
for I’ll support you
with intravenous sap
and flying buttress.

Together we can make it
and reach the sunlit heights
to greet the passing breeze
and sip the humus earth.
