Colourful Star: March 2015
http://msvstp.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Friday, 27 March 2015. Езеро с лодка/Lake with boat. We might do this,. Go out through the city’s. Human tarmac envelope,. And keep going until. We’re pulling over. Along a gravel path. And then gives out. We might do this. And track a way. The ardent foliage,. Of a glaucous lake. And my offering to. Row out to where. We’ll be sat above. Friday, 20 March 2015. How these newcomers must see us. On this first warmish day. When daffodils hold their own. And winter hangs around. At the cusp of memory. 13 Marc...

Colourful Star: July 2015
http://msvstp.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Friday, 31 July 2015. В кухнята/In the kitchen. Adventurous light plays on vegetable surfaces,. Out to remind us, it seems, that this is the morning after. We’ve been talking as if bare, crude facts. Were nothing more than annoyances. Across the way, cleaned washing balloons. In chance wind currents and lime-green leaves. Make love a plausible topic of conversation. In the distance, a city does what it has to do. And email messages stack up to not much at all. You are paring and peeling hot peppers.

Colourful Star: January 2015
http://msvstp.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Friday, 30 January 2015. Хляб и свещи/Bread and candles. The ivy leaves sheened with frost. Attend more changes in the weather:. An inhospitable climate, you’d say,. Drawing tactful attention to. Bread and candles give out. Their promises in this small space –. Not great statements into the world. Of headlines and outrage, but light. And sustenance, the waxy smell,. The taste of recent harvest. And here, at this table, it’s as if. I’ve not had time to think of this before. Friday, 23 January 2015. Omen p...

Colourful Star: Пак друг чайник/Again another kettle
http://msvstp.blogspot.com/2015/08/again-another-kettle.html
Friday, 14 August 2015. Пак друг чайник/Again another kettle. At some point a coincidence, a joining of dots:. A red sheen as one of the specifics,. A kettle with apples and all that suggests. In the mountains I was lost. Amongst landscapes that reared and bucked. Without pretence (though easily seen that way). And then brought home. To lights that flashed beyond these blocks. Promises of my return, newly familiar scene. At this distance from where. With some hope I might belong. View my complete profile.

Bristol’s Libraries – 400 years old today. They come over here …. This is Henri Coandă. Handsome devil, ain’t he? He was damn clever, too. He was born in 1886 and invented a recoilless gun, prefabricated houses and a solar-powered system of desalination, among many other things. Earlier in his career, though, Henri Coandă worked in Bristol. He joined the British and Colonial Aircraft Company in 1912, just two years after its foundation, as its Technical Director, and worked there for three years. To cut ...

Archive for June, 2014. Biological warfare in Bristol? Here’s another one of my favourite Bristol WW1 tales; a favourite because it contains a great big unanswered, and possibly unanswerable question. Bubonic plague. Scary stuff because that’s, like, what the Black Death was about. The thing that killed maybe as much as half the population of Europe in the 14th century. It’s always been […].
