Mind the gap

Stay quiet

Drift in and out of days

Live in the shadows

Squander 

Time

It’s yours

Keep it in your clenched fist

Forever

Become a leaf on the breeze

Gaze through the days

And the silent breath of the world

Look further

Think less

Now more

Than before

Use soundless power

To connect

Resist the hot chatter

Stay quiet this winter

Embrace the long shadows

The in and out of the bow scrape

Adopt an austere poise of thoughtful joy

Smile at people you don’t like

Its powerful

Bask in the early morning darkness

Take your time

Walk slowly

But think fast

Catch a wave

Let the currents draw you further out

Drink more tea

Savour every last drop

Imagine a world 

Without you

Look for doorways

Into other realms

They will appear

When you least expect them

Mind the gap.
