Lost


You put my postcode
Into your Sat Nav
So you can find me.

But how we get
From where we are now
To where we want to be
Is a mystery.

    Oh so wonderful doubt about ourselves and others. Potent, so-much-between-the-lines work.

    Love how you put so much into such a small space.

    Some poems get overburdened with their words. This is sly, simple, yet deep.

    Sewed up that one in a neat package, and I enjoyed unwrapping it.

    Very special and the view of you guys at the old moving picture show and then meandering home. You get clearer and better with every write. Gay @beachanny

    Simple and haunting. I love poems that offer a mystery without giving too much of an answer. Some clues are good, but presenting a universe for the reader to think in is every poet's job.
