Out5 of the Way
Lydia has pink sandals
and butterfly clips:
it's sunny in the gardens,
the grass tiger striped,

the news only a distant wheeze
from a kitchen radio,
drowned by bees,
a breeze, the birdsong.

This is why we're here:
nothing to worry over
but tumbles on soft lawns,
that and the vicious roar

of fighter bombers, spinning
like needles over garden sheds,
practising pitching bombs
on babies' heads.
