Poetry - 2006

a reading for Jenny Dunn by Lloyd Godman

Under one blue Sky

embedded in language
encrypted sounds - signs -
fight to be heard

a message lost in language
a language lost in message
communication can fail
technology reduced to irrelevancy
artefact - too far behind today
artefiction – too far ahead of its time

where static prevails there is no replacement
incomprehensible indiscernible
codes remain unciphered by another

diversity struggles to survive
yet there is one blue sky
