Cul de Sac
Stuck in a holding pattern
Like a plane over Gatwick
Waiting to land
Waiting to take off
Listening to music as I paint
I notice all the music is sad
Little Green
Telegraph Road
Never liked November
It always seems so unreasonable of me to hate bonfire night and fireworks
Standing outside in cold damp leaf-strewn spaces
It was okay when it was just my Dad setting off a catherine wheel against the shed
Because everything was always alright
With my beautiful Dad
Who died in November 95
At only 55
Such a beautiful man
Handsome, tall, musical, adventurous, funny, mercurial,
He was sui generis
A rare soul
