Pottering Bits And Bobs Poem by Zyw Zywa
Pottering Bits And Bobs
It itches in my head
the world turns and tumbles
on margins
of prestige and laws
and well-known artists
dance along
they want to make
something for thousands
of years, for everyone
an axis of eternal truth
and beauty, protected
from the own laws
of vandals, the army
of black beetles
on bomberdumberdays
the violence of time
in the margin of which people
potter for immortality
