This morning
I woke to a day
like a bad dream;
death in the Family,
all those damp-eyed girls
too young to know love
who thought
they loved you.

The truth of you
was in a million men
called Bob; suited,
suburban, provincial,
souvenirs of the people
we used to be.Jana Novotná - d. November 19th 2017
When life contrives
to slam your sharpest serves
back, and back, listen
for the whisper
at your ear; don't
worry,
you'll win this one day.Wednesday 15 November 2017

I’m sure I saw you
on the box
only last night,
comfortably real
in a low-ratings show
where all the parts
were bit parts.

From the missing channel
comes a voice, nimble
cadences of scoreless draws
and late kick-offs moving like
scales to a harmonic point of rest.
