February 2024 Collage Poem: Strange Notes
Proud cufflinks punch drunken bees
fires of furniture at number 92
a sword of death a copper kettle
tick tock tick tock and the
glory of untamed flowers
who love to dance.
United in flames, the music bringing you
together, footnotes in history
Winnie the Pooh is still dancing
motes of morning light on the edge
of a life show doilies and discounted cakes
eleven lyrical apostles suspended by paint
And Pooh dances to Northern Soul, as God
makes notes in the footnotes of a poem.
Slipping into the meditation of Northern Soul
God speaks as in a whirlwind.
Everything is hidden waiting to be revealed
and here is an end to my story lost in the rhythm
because I have to dance
