Robert Verdon, #66, The Voice II


shades sweep the lawn
at three a.m.
voice in the head
screams to escape

voice at the end
of the road
house at the outset
earth at the other

a building
is dancing
as it
dies

terror of wind
when none is
shrieking,
blast with no echo

the lawn
is still
we
are breathing

  2. That was inspired by the botched 'implosion' of Canberra Hospital in the 90s, though I only saw it in tv.
