OCTOBER
ON NORTH HILL
bless test
mess of leaves
wings will not make
serious
back pack
stride
fern returns
leaf crisps
clenched
hear
here
~ ~
break stop wave
make it return
a flick of the wrist
she hasn’t got
yet
who has not built
a house
will now no longer
will not build
no nay never
or some version
on the march
against
war
no more
builds now
who has not yet
who has not built
yet builds now
bilds
(this is the dialogue of memory)
bird rattle
sun slats
through dry leaves
like the turning
segments
of glass
at Foreland Point
occulting the optic
white outriders
over ride the line
