She looked after me
and pointed out the blackbirds
when I was little.

Kingfisher
Slow lowland rivers,
pulling nets for a living,
those halcyon days.

Unintended consequence
Discarded fast-food;
a gull, impatient, gorges.
Speared from the inside.

I saw this unfortunate gull today at the Harbourside in Bristol. It left me feeling conflicted. Gulls are a bit of a nuisance and will raid the bins to satisfy their opportunistic lifestyle, and in doing so often litter the surroundings. However, this is not a nice predicament, and I am left wondering if things will turn out ok.
