Poem
"I AM NOT A POET," I state, definitively. The poem, ignoring me, continues to flutter around the inside of the car, battering the windshield and my head with its tiny wings. Exasperated, I pull over at the entrance to a seldom-used dirt road. If I don't give in and write the damned thing down, it will likely cause me to wreck.
They're tenuous these
spider strands, silken threads, flaxen fibers that
bind us across states and continents
across the sea a friendly firefly spark
Dutch denizen of flat fields and flowers
a red goddess of discord counterintuitively
loving forge, flame, and family
generous alchemist, daughter of east and west
mothers new, watching toddler steps, and
older, letting go of children grown
we water our plants and bitch about them
ducks and dogs or ivy-wrapt bones
shall I send you a rock?
a wild walker of mountains and trails
Mutuals
Beloved
"Are you bloody-well satisfied?" I ask the tiny shape. It settles onto the back of the envelope. Flicking its wings, testing the words on paper with unknowable sensors on its miniscule feet. Accepting them, it hmmms a clear note, then vanishes. I am not a poet. I just can't get the damned poems to leave me alone.

what makes it worse how Jack treated Robert is Jack used to be like Robert not interested in the farm, cocky, wanted what he wanted, had loads of affairs so him to judge robert for not being Jack Sugden Jr was hypocritical and don't get me started on the violent, hot headed, rude, entitled, cuckoo in the nest Andy ugh
I never understood why or how he favour andy over his own flesh and blood esp after things he did but dislikes his own son. I like Robert don't get what is so special about Andy, he not the nice guy people make out. just like Jack was not the loving father people make out, he belittled and ignored Robert, ignored Victoria and her grief too, and Jack actually was not fond of Andy at first, Robert even said to Andy at his stag night (the 2nd time marrying Katie) that Jack saw Andy as trouble and that he bad influence on Robert then suddenly Andy showed interest in farm and Robert made clear he not be one take over his affections suddenly started to switch his affections to Andy and then suddenly all for adopting Andy into the family then Robert was the bad one who would not leave poor little Andy alone. I wonder if Andy feared Jack would start switch his affections to Daz when he turned up. what kind of father plays favourites, what kind father makes you feel not good enough and has conditions on that you made feel loved and good enough, yet Vic, Diane and Andy all idolise him. It no wonder Robert is way he with his affections, is if his dad switches his affections when it suits him. He also only took on Daz for Andy and he was seen as a nuiscance too. But it was ok when he hero worshipped Andy but when begin to grow out it he was suddenly bad and kicked out the family, kind like Robert, but Andy behaviour was all excused, Jack and Andy both put on bloody pedestal's while Robert and Daz were the bad one's and nuisances not saying their behaviour is ok but Andy and Jack are hypcorites. Also hate how Andy usurped Robert place in the family and never cringed
