Generation Why?

Name:
Location: Coventry, Warwickshire, United Kingdom

I am a 30 year old part-time English teacher and postgraduate student. I prefer red wine to white, cats to dogs and lazy Sunday mornings to any other kind of morning you care to mention. I have a love of tea, chocolate biscuits and rate Llamas as amongst the most entertaining of animals. Spiritually ambivalent and politically bewildered, I seem to spend a lot of time reading the news and getting unnecessarily anxious about it. Italian food, French cheese and pizza will always be met with smiles and is a sure fire way to win me over. My hair is a mess and I wear spectacles.

Spring

Perhaps Tomorrow


I dream of water and levitation
Thinking about weeks spent on awkward headinga
Sleeping naked in foreign beds, with foreign sweats
Wishing I was a character in a book

I dream of cheese cloth and shirts worn thin
Old boots with knotted laces illuminate me
A day spent swimming in Germanic mountain waters
The ancient art of spilling cheap white wine

I dreamt I was a fisherman with rough hands
A skin of weathered leather and blue seabird eyes
Living out the rhythm of life with the rolling tides
An ocean of salt water tears

I am a bright fish flopping on white sands
Perhaps tomorrow I will dream of you
