not heard of Donne?
will anti ruins rise? the natives
love to squeal -
piccadilly now a century of dust -
today a day of canny ruins
pyramids
radiating sun -
a healing absence left -
thoughts sear the page –then gone
yes we should write to make words
disappear
to seal a world of ruins -
‘Donne?’ the stand up poet said
no luv, Donne’s dead – well gone’
