September on Sands by GJ Hart

Winter has distinct 
notions, 
sits beyond the white 
rocks shielding us, 
eyeing each
wasp and sparkle,
and waiting to push 
its grey legs 
into the surf.

It knows 
whatever sweetness 
pours will
spoil and waves
are just the sound
of time breaking 
us down 
forever.

I too know 
there is nothing
to worry about 
so worry 
about nothing, the colours
of things and smooth 
tongues whispering 
beneath the
house.





GJ Hart currently lives in London and has had pieces published in The Molotov Cocktail, The Jersey Devil Press, the Harpoon Review and others. He can be found arguing with himself over @gj_hart.
