The Packaging Poem
Which is the most important?
The packaging or the egg?
Which is the most important?
The butter or the bread?
Which is the most important?
The bird or the bee?
Which is the most important?
The ewe or the me?

Recovery
The night has been terror:
Depression, cold, confusion.
- Ears scream.
Grey - the morning in
my front-room.
A tear on my cheek and
a child’s grizzle for
a few seconds
- from my
adult form.
A small rebellion
- the beginning of action.
A tiny sunbeam through
the window
- Doing again.
by Mark Drew
The poems in Welsh
Gwellhad
Bu'r noson yn hunllefus:
Iselder, oerfel, dryswch.
- Clustiau'n sgrechian.
Llwyd - y bore yn
fy ystafell fyw.
Deigryn ar fy moch a
griddfan plentyn am
ychydig eiliadau
- o fy
nghorff oedolyn.
Gwrthryfel bach
- dechrau gweithredu.
Llygedyn o heulwen drwy'r
ffenest
- Gwneud unwaith eto.

Cerdd am Becynnau
Pa un sydd bwysicaf?
Y pecyn neu'r wy?
Pa un sydd bwysicaf?
Y fforc neu y llwy?
Pa un sydd bwysicaf?
Y gath neu y ci?
Pa un sydd bwysicaf?
Y ti neu y fi?
