29ft Crocodiles

Thats about five times bigger than most people
Thinking about one of these swimming besides or underneath your waterside home

Watched a programme about these big Crocs in the Philippines and felt really scared for the people there but awe at these animals who've survived from the time of dinosaurs. It cant be released and it cant be kept in captivity

August Evening Memory

from the hill looking down back to the sea, across sussex
grasses swaying gently in evening breeze

purple, white clover, lilac scabius, thistles
cowslips, vetch like lilac broom
red dead nettle, nettle
buttercups
red campion
white cow parsley
grasses

layers of green - blunted by dryness of late summer
distant whites playing cricket
cows, sheep grazing

dry mud
dogs barking
bees - flies zipping past
partridge whrrrr..chucking in the distance
other birds beginning to settle down
warm dry august early evening

background drone of cars, aeroplanes

smell of... dryness
dry flint chalky path winding inbetween nettles
over tree roots

some four legged small animal running through
the undergrowth

one buddlea escaped from a garden

Dream

Strange feeling when you know you are dreaming but almost awake.. and the dream doesnt make sense and you keep looking for it to make sense and then you wake up and reallise it was a dream. remember in my dream swimming out to sea not really sure why i was there and reallised had no back up boat, it was getting dark and not sure where the person was i was swimming with and dilemma to find the person or go back to the shore without them, then reallised possibility they had already turned back and i should too. remember worrying about sharks but dont think there are any round here

funny thing reallise this is a memory of something that really happened that had forgotton about ...with friends, swimming of the shore late November, hadnt thought about the tides, we all got back ok but i was the last ..the tides were so strong and as it was getting dark all directions looked the same. someone came back in to help me. afterwards we walked back along the beach and noticed that the boxes with life rings were broken and life rings missing
