3 Poems by D. J. Tyrer

 A Visit to the Bank


Before, they always expected you
To remove scarves and helmets
To put your face on display.
Now, they look askance at you
When you don’t wear a face mask…

(Originally published in A Wuhan Whodunnit, Atlantean Publishing)


Botswana

A dusty landscape
An image in beige and brown
Hungry for water
Cattle moving languidly
A bruised sky promises rain

(originally published in Tigershark ezine)


Fog & Sun

Bright sunny morning
Fog on the estuary
Strange dichotomy
