the inevitable tock
this queasy land
life out of time, this dreamscape
with waist-high mist
and then a uni-prop dhrined straight across the sky one endless summer gardenoon
made a whorl
brown and bloody fields
and jar-sweet marmalade
wherein history appeared
as proliferated objects
space now only a measure
the face appears
in the eye of the storm
tarnished blue and palsy
measuring gossamer gold
between always-contestable markers
from an impossible sapphire cap
only retrospectively glimpsed now
as screaming banshees
back in the maelstrom
when we close our eyes
