then surely days like today

in part explain it.

In death we find life

nothing ever goes to waste;

a new beginning.

The squeeze

.

High-maintenance kids

and elderly frail parents;

squeezed generation.

In death

 

In death we see time

and events that shape our past

in death we see life.

Morning drag

 

Lethargic students

trudge their way to lecture halls

nursing excesses.

Dependent

 

Horrible wet day;

sustenance and life, I must

learn to love the rain.

Funeral talk

 

Uncomfortable

conversations about death.

Inevitable.

Eternity

 

Geological

time contextualises

human existence.

Strolling through Shoreditch

shutter working overtime

utterly vibrant.

Leaving

 

It’s complicated

me and my father; and now

he leaves one last time.
