minima-B was an idea for my poetry and art to combine. hugely influenced by haiku, hence the minima and also by basho and beefheart, hence the B. i would like to think that i had, like my great hero, captain beefheart, created, by merging various elements, something new. something a little different. unique even. i probably haven't but i am very proud of these works. here, then, are my arty farty bits.

Thursday

cellophane














the games played are rare and swift.





better to remember the open hand than the closed fist.





to suffer little thought to think





but salve souls with the balm of reality.





everything has its price in this dull market place.
