At the very last minute

I decided to record our voyage

As well as write about it

Which I thought might be fun

I will download the unedited content

Directly on to my website

Along with any new poems or fictions

But you will not see me

(perhaps only in reflection)

You will however see a great deal

Of Josie and Sephine

(I will not apologise)

I hope to present my work

a la cinéma vérité

In an effort to capture

The real feel of the voyage

In the 1947 film Lady in the Lake

The movie used a distinctive

Point of view technique

Where the camera acts

As the protagonist

In this case Philip Marlowe

And everything is seen

Through his eyes

As you all know I like to experiment

With my poems and fictions

It will be interesting to see the results
