A world in a bottle,
encapsulated
within a thin wall of glass

A world in a bottle,
encapsulated
within a thin wall of glass

Eve of All Saints Day,
spirits are roaming:
today, it is Halloween

Sun shining on tall spire
At end of day
Autumn evening: inspired

Foliage goldening
In the setting sun:
Autumn arrives slowly

Rolls of turf await
slow unwinding before
a fine green lawn appears

A celestial trail crossing
the west London sky
very faintly

Eyes glued to screens
On tablets and phones:
Absorbed, alone with their egos

Vienna and Wiesbaden can
No more be reach’d
From this here station

Like ants they crawl
Across a sea of glass
High above the River Thames

Let us spray
That the water will help
Nourish the vegetati-on
