past the big oleander bush

backing off the tiles onto the lawn

staring at the railing

staring at the terrazzo decking of the porch

through the spaces between the balusters

between the top rail and the bottom one if you

prefer to look at it that way the way the

birds had gone silent

silence the air

traffic on the highway

about a kilometre away bikes

then the brush decorator’s brush

natural bristle

ancient the bristles nicked into at the toe

or torn half-torn away

remnants of paint (water base)

on the ferrule and

on the handle

Leaf shadows II

 Leaf shadows II - for autumnal enjoyment !

#JacobsRoom100

It's well known by now that  2022 marks the centenary celebration of the publication of James Joyce’s Ulysses, T.S. Eliot’s The Waste Land, and Virginia Woolf’s Jacob’s Room. 

The celebration continues of course and there is now a Twitter hashtag with information about a free online seminar of talks and readings in regard to Jacob’s Room on 26 and 27 October.

So the tag is above and I highly recommend Jacob’s Room to anyone who hasn't read it and has an interest in poetry in the wide sense of the word. I should add perhaps that I don't yet know the names of the people who will be speaking at the October gathering. I'll try to find out and post.

 A photo from our 2019 visit. I've posted other pictures of this area here, easily searchable happily enough. Hoping to make another visit this autumn!
