the cave was as high as the sky
the light at the mouth too bright
to bear, the weight of cliff; in from
the light, a retching steamship with
stacked funnels polluting, intent
on direction across a dim and
sunlit sea fathomless to man, where
only seagulls wing clarity over weedy waves
berthed out of the cave by Coleridge‘s ‘Kubla Khan‘, 1816: Staffa Fingal’s Cave, 1832 by William Turner
