Poetry, Essays and Art By J.H. Dickinson from All-Creatures.org
A blanket
A blanket of ignorance.
Shrouded normative,
discordant human.
A blanket of suffering.
Inflicted creature,
dictated by sorrow,
confusion.
A blanket of warmth.
Rescue and hope,
caring,
liberation of moment.
A blanketed joke.
A poke of tom foolery.
Saddened, crooked,
suffocating, hopeless.
A liars blanket.
Shaping history.
Removed by
revelation of truth.
An evolving world
beckons
for connection,
soulful and true.

Go on to: A British Madness
