A Poem for Brian Patten - Underdog
Revived
And forget that old aphorism
The point of having time? To fart around
The desert pilgrim
Admit One - use it wisely
When the sun went down
Press play
Sightseeing
in the place you know best.
That’s what listening to
On the other side of the great trek
The book beggar
Transforming the strange into the familiar
What we are talking about here is
metaphor.
Metaphor is the lifeblood
