displacement displacement



i sat down
to write a poem
to distract me
from all the things
i didn't want
to have to do
but the draws
of assorted
glowing screens
ate my mind
ate my time
all
i scrawled
was this

words fail me



i'm starting to hate
poetry by sixty-three;
words are failing me

miss


every day when i log on
to twitter the first thing i do
is open lists and click upon
the link that takes me straight to you
in futile hope that you've returned
as if you'd never been away
to the social medium you spurned
eighteen months ago today
i know you had your reasons
and i know they're pretty sound
and i know that my worries and
wishes you were still around
are just selfish expressions
of a self-involved regret
and i know i know you less than
anyone you ever met
and it shouldn't be an issue
and i should get over it
but the fact remains i miss you
cos you were my favourite twit
