Deja Vu - Again (Poetry)
14th May 2023
I recognise this
place — it is somewhere
I’ve never been a
dozen times before
yet I must admit
each time seems like new
so peculiar
while familiar
I wonder if my
memory’s at fault —
playing some mad trick
or is there a far
more simple and a
bit less fanciful
explanation for
this odd sensation?
The only thing I’m
almost sure of is
that it’s virtually
impossible to
guess the truth of it
when what they’re building
all too often looks
the same — Legoland
the new lifesize game
