 Pin pricks...
Pin pricks of poison
spill on my day -
my space in the sunlight
is spotted with spray...

Some say it's the devil
who spits in my eye -
a demon from darkness -
a monster who spies...

Some think it is fate
that turns the wrong way -
a fault with a fracture -
a dent in the day...

To me it is simply
the pattern of life -
down snakes and up ladders -
a board splashed with strife...

Pin pricks of pleasure
spill on my day -
my space in the sunlight
has room - still for play...

Joy Weare,
3rd June, 2011.
