The poetry here is not lovely and warm and furzy but then the title should have told you that.
Tracks, J.R.McRae
Pushed to the brink
Where tracks wash out.
Skin slides down the elements tracking the sun,
Cloth waves loose
Flirting with bodies beneath.
He’s different.
Up on the grass
He lets the wind cut through his shirt,
Long sleeves to hide the tracks
Where he’s been.

Hi JR!
Just wanted to say how much I liked 'tracks'
especially the descriptions of the sea and the second half where you have that great change:
"He’s different.
Up on the grass
He lets the wind cut through his shirt"
and the whole poem shifts!
