When the shift caused quakes
6 November 2015
Mother now shuddered
Her great body awaking
The deepest Thunders
Heart to Heart relates
In between the neutrinos
That play in the gaps
As the core opened
Heart’s path shifted further out
Where the Red met Blue
The frozen boiled
Kettles left unattended
Spilled the teas’ fresh leaves
Hatter and I drank
He adjusted my bow tie
Borrowed from rabbit
I kept key to door
Inside the waistcoat’s pocket
Lost it in flurry
We raced towards end
Pedalling backwards moved not
Keep Heart in stillness
Mother spoke solace
Out of a bottomless well
While sun blazed in sky
Deserts sands lifted
Tidal wave swept across skies
Kissing us goodbye
The pull and the push
Shifted more than my backbone
The Time ne’er came back
When the shift caused quakes
Mother skipped through old doorways
Calming Heart’s tremors
I reached for your Hand
Your hands were cold I knew then
Valleys of ice wept
