SHORT SAMPLES FROM EVERGREEN (not whole poems) Gaping generalisations I am not what you call me -this stereotypical label, given unbidden, which somehow means more to you, though it's supposed to be mine. Inner stem of strength Self-protection - my saviour -became my anchorand this anchor empowered. Yearning and learning Nowadays, what is done, seen and heardis a dear gauge to me -of what is and what isn't the reality. Love me Since getting lost in this situation, like a child in a garden maze, the more I give, the less you see.What irony; what quandary. Disequilibrium and distance You see a slice of me;the part formed by my lack of choice.I cede to your will for now.Don't I need to survive somehow? The wrong kind of 'polished' With detail and determination there's another observation.No need for absolute self-condemnation, there's a different consideration;a new orientation. Partial picture This part of my life, you see, is a segment, a snippet, a scene -not wholly past, present, or future. Too much to remedy I'm an integral part of the work team, yet the more settled on paper I seem, the more unsettled I become in reality.But what can I do? I endure stoically. Fleeing a trap Tested out the tentative and failedlots of timesuntil fruitful routes became clear.Unexpectedly, I grewin the face of pain and fear. Tricky minds Intrusive thoughts from the imagination, the type I would never act out and bring to realisation.It would only increase the devastation. Potential If I stop trying to learn and growthen I'll never know what I can achieveand how tall my beanstalk of exploration can possibly go.
