                                                      Eglinton Hill

                           even the Victorian houses
                           standing their three dimensions wide
                           bay windows chimney spines and pipes

                           are flats while starlings fight without let
                           without resolve in the large bushes in front
                           and the crane on the building supply truck
                           lurches over the speed hump

                                   Canary Wharf has
                           newer buildings around it
                           like slow plumes of smoke
                                   from a distance

                                          walking over
                                          Shooters Hill

                           in my new green
                           roll-neck jumper

                           as night gathered
                           round the trees

                           mist rose from the
                           trees and bushes

                           like the pipes
                           of an organ

                                   twilight

                     up the path
                     with damp leaves
                     on either side

                     it is dark
                     under the bushes
                     under the trees and

                     a lemon blue
                     sky above the
                     red tiles.   Home

                     my brother watches
                     blackandwhite TV

                     in the grey room
                     the curtain open

                     and
                     the
                     con-
                     trast
                     up
