An evocative nature and love poem, by Manadakini, that operates at several layers, exclusively for Different Truths.

The day draws on…

A minty morning
Dusting feathers
Pecks at a plum;
I hear your call
Picking at small hopes,
Sowing seeds at random.
Ta-ra-dum-di-dum.

The day draws on…

A jaunty mid-day
Swings on electric line,
Then settles to lunch
On the core of my heart
Splits wide like pink guava,
Tearing into its lush cauldron.
Ta-ra-dum-di-dum.

The day draws on…

The mauve evening scavenger
Meets the raven of night
Exchange through beaks
Shreds of my brain
Proceed to drop bird-poop on
Strips of our cohesion.

Ta-ra-dum-di-dum.
