S. C. FLYNN
Blight Weather
The days stand in warm, unseasonal puddles,
but the tired man stuffed with emptiness and fear
feels the monumental drought of his mind.
He is afraid of rousing the echo
and knows the future is hunting him down,
waiting to shoot the void dead centre.
This perennial fungus feeds on the past,
eating away the membrane that divides it
from the present and spreading a prediction
to be endured in colours only imagined
and just starting to try to name themselves,
a symbiosis of dream and waking.
S. C. Flynn was born in Australia of Irish origin and now lives in Dublin, Ireland. His poetry has been published in Dreich, Martello, New Word Order, Beir Bua, SurVision, etc.
