RE: Sometimes we went for a drive and got searched // stanzas from my Midday Walks
Interesting write, mate.
Made me think of Yeats, "Things fall apart, the center cannot hold."
as plates on top of molten matters always do
Nice line. Molten matters ... wish I had thought of that.

Thank you, my dear friend. I am extremely flattered by your feedback. So much that is beneath the surface is ignored at our peril - that's what I was attempting to convey. The stress, heat and potential for crises.
I struggle to press these short verses out - a singular metaphor like that, well - I still owe you guys a lot more ;-) - I am always in admiration of your poetry which is so much more detailed, well-considered and clear arguments for the issue your poem seeks to address. I feel like mine are pennies into a wishing well. Ah, what the heck. I feel lucky ;-)
