Poem: An Anchor

First published in Miracle, Tuesday 15th July 2014

Two of my poems have been published in the most recent issue of Miracle, an online and print-on-demand literary and art magazine.

The theme is 'Cage', which I interpreted liberally.

Here is one of them:

An anchor
You drew an I♥U
on my trouser leg. You
linked the letters so it looked more
like a Popeye tattoo. I let you
because these trousers are old and,
as you say, it’ll probably
come out in the wash.
