                           “…during all of my lives
                           may I become a protector
                           for those who are protector-less…”

                           the ageing daughter
                           strokes her mother’s face

                           the smoke
                                     rises
                           slowly from the ghat

stranger

                stranger

                the curl of
                the finger the lip
                has made the
                winning point

                pointing
                the desk then
                reclining
                the eyebrow
                raises

                but I have touched
                your hand
                it was soft and
                electric

        the guitar strike
        cranes and

        echoes

        dawn-like
        boots step
        on bodies
        which – green –

        grab slightly

        hand shakes
        children’s faces
        meat

                                Hill
                                Street
                                Blues

                      the puddle here
                      which the car
                           turning into the road
                      is about to drive through

                      doesn’t quite catch
                           the reflection
                      of the cars passing
                      overhead on the bridge
