Digest

Syd

Diligently digesting 
The written word
Letters dance delicately 
Like hummingbirds

Risqué authors such as
Irvine Welsh & Tony O'Neill 
They are the cone around my head 
While my wounds heal

Motionless actors frozen on stage
It's never too late
To pick up where you left off
At the folded page

Slow right down
Breathe, escape 
A leisurely stroll
Not a hectic race

Pupils enlarged 
Lips pursed
Delightfully delicious 
Is the written verse
