The Long Crawl.
Sluglike and heavy, weary of percentages
Rolling slowly on rough carpets of winter green
Rainfall aftermath damp and blanket atmosphere
Moving by the metre just after sun shower
'Little insect journey'
DONT LET THE GIANT FOOT FIND ME
The concept of scale is a cage in itself
'Little insect Auschwitz'
Chained to the radiator calling for god
Crawling in a post drenched place
Cautious of what gaps manage to crease
the gardens of anywhere.
Empty plastic bag arms around a kerb
Last chance of community
Establish an alternative bag breaks
Separates sails away
Smothers a distant crawling creature
Rolling slowly on rough carpets of winter green
'Little insect casualty'
Vanished to some elbowless purgatory.
