Poem 426

Learn to take what you’re offered … a bit Roger McGough this …

( I like the wordplay on too much to think … )

When You Think About It

the light in your fridge
is faithless
it comes on for anybody

when you think about it
love is heavier than air
that's how it gets trampled

when you think about it
                                                again
love could be lighter than air
and it's all lying above us
the love layer

when you've had too much to
are a bit the worse for
think
mud concreting your feet
love out of reach
open the fridge

she shines for you
