480
intercontinental
(Dublin musing)
I was travelling
full of sleep
night was in me still
it was my nose knew day
before the light
I was all traffic adjusting to seasons
neither here not there
sneezed to be
and out of the sack
felt the cold
something dreamt
still clung to me
and it was folded away
like a sea
like a river run up your sleeve
and away
I was the little boat
dancing with waves
I would still be arriving for days
once I was well gone
ReplyDeleteResembles my old
dump in Camberwell
two doors down a fire
where I rushed in
for the young woman
who wasn't there
this last line slays me
ReplyDeleteHa!
