Superficially
Perfect lives edited for
Social media A balled up bralette
Sits on the bedside table
Raising self-esteem
Call from a party
Drunk 4am bathroom tears
Everything changes
Polaroids: Fire Poi – Black & Yellow Monochrome
[Camera: Polaroid SLR 680 – impossible project expired monochrome film]
I took these Polaroids of a friend light painting with fire at the derelict Botanic Gardens Railway platform recently. My first time using Third Man Records black and yellow monochrome film, which I’d let run out of date before use.
Chiaroscuro
Fading daily in my heart
The light you painted
Silence in the dark
Quietus still not at peace
Lit nights sleepless daze

Some Polaroids I took recently and three 5/7/5 syllable haiku about sex and complete and utter despair.
Cry laughing emoji x3, Cheeky monkey emoji x3, Eggplant emoji.
The first time that I
Fucked someone I didn’t adore
Was liberating
Wash my genitals
In the sink and wait for your
Taxi to arrive
Reminders of you –
Tobacco, Booze, Arguments
And the smell of sex
