HE'S WEARING MOSTLY PINK SOCKS

I've been away in Spain for a week and it was richly rewarding from a poetry perspective. This post a poem I wrote in the airport prior to flying. A word of explanation first, The Daily Mail, for those who may not know is a right wing publication.

AIRPORT OBSERVATION

he’s wearing mostly pink socks

under blue walking sandals

chocolate brown trousers [half mast]

and a canary yellow windcheater

yet he still feels embarrassed enough

to fold The Daily Mail in half

sports page showing

and hide it in his case

This is a light little poem. It is based on the actions of someone I observed, my eye first being caught by their jacket. More poems next post when I've had a chance of shaping and revising them. 

Here's Lluis Llach live.

Until next time.
