Unsettled Weather. (Revised).

Ink blue sky.

Houses reflecting the afternoon light

Are whiter than paper.

The late summer heat, solid as marble

Without a single flaw,

Holds me back.

I cannot think - or write - or paint in

                                      this weather,

Clarity of sunlight does not sharpen 

                                   the imagination

Like the onset of summer rain.

Moist grey shadows drift across 

                                            landscapes

Darkened by low cloud.

Mud clogs my shoes, 

But I can walk for miles in such weather,

Observing a revitalized world;

The wind ransacking through tree tops;

Wild water tumultuous in gullies.

This is the world as I love it,

Heartland of the northern gods.

Not in MY Name.

Protesting against the career of Boris Johnson,

First as London Mayor then as the British Prime 

Minister responsible for wrecking the economy

and moral standing of his country through Brexit

and the attacks on human rights, merely to foster

his own personal interest. This is a graffiti style

panel slowly created over twelve years of outrage,

anger and growing despair. I do not like this as

a piece of art, but it relates how I feel about the

degradation of my once vibrant country. Sadly it

seems that ugly events create an ugly response. Oh

bring back Atlee  and Bevan. Oh bring back the

creative vigour of the 1960`s and the early 2000`s. 

This pastel shows the despair I have felt during these dark soulless years.

Driving at Speed Through a German Wood.( Newly Completed Poem).

Driving at speed through a German wood.

Sunlight flashing between tall trees

Sudden glints of white steel

That hurt my eyes as I stare through straight lines

Of these sky breaching pine trees.

The flat blue calm of a distant lake

Offers peace where only speed seems relevant

As we climb towards our sunless destination

High above the tree line.

There only the turbulence of rock and cloud await us.

There even the pines seem small.

Driving at speed through a German wood

The living world appears an after thought,

Only the road ahead is real.

Trevor John Karsavin Potter.
