Zen walkway for girl in summer dress
black and white
speed metal thrash, billy kids gruff

The lock gates at the entrance to the harbour
are always shut
but she's delighted to cross without waiting
She's grateful for her good fortune
We say nothing

One Year

one year
the silence came
bliss
mixed with terror
lift my head
out of dream
north
after nights in the corner
cold earth
waiting
for everything
by chance
to make its escape
play
like morphine & honey
slack
random
no more centuries
where shadows
animals
pull strings
songs never heard
turn
enough
to slip into fog
