The Shift by Darrell Lindsey ( 2012 West Coast Eisteddfod Poetry Competition)
The Shift
He says a plethora of planets
will soon morph many into grief:
they'll become beautiful women
laughing at desperate men in bars
unruly children spitting
in the faces of babysitters
cranky landlords
handing out eviction notices.
He says we'll want the old alignments back,
war with ourselves about what can be done
but the clock will be frozen,
and buried deep.
Hi Darrell
Many thanks for your excellent submissions to the 2012 WCE Poetry Competition. To be considered for the competition all entries must be submitted to the relevant group discussion page. I am taking the liberty of re posting your three poems there. Pob lwc/Best of luck.
