short forms 8th April 2016

bad time
to make a wish
that your father was dead
when a demon is listening.

blank canvas
bought from charity shop
for a fiver
just the right size
for a removed bookcase

dark space
filled with books
feels oppressive

I rearrange
throw out another hundred
of art and gardening

precious losses

ruthless. her bookshelves diminish.
