She left the room undusted, did not care
She was half-undressed
The Shot
The Sleep of Birds
The Smell of Chrysanthemums
So long ago and yet it taunts me still
So much she caused she cannot now account for
So simple, very few
So they came
Some say they find it in the mind
Sometimes the tall poem leans across the page

Song for a Departure
Song in November 2000

The Spirit’s Power

Such love I cannot analyse

That great bubble of silence, almost tangible quiet was shattered 118 That one bird, one star 57 That tree across the way 125 The agony is formal; three 63 The bells renew the town, discover it 9 The bullet shot me and I lay 38 The chestnut leaves are toasted. Conkers spill 163 The children asked ‘Where is the end of the world?’ 176 The quiet moves, the gently shaded room 55 The radiance of the star that leans on me 1 Then this is being mad; there is no more 89
