I awoke with a need,
with presentiments from bad dreams;
detached from feeling, I hear it sing:
a grandfather’s clock, untimely,
boxes and a piano with no tuning.
a walk through high hills and chalk walls,
towards a fervid green memory -
no ash to see and no burnt bodies.
now, with this perturbed heartbeat,
the ghosts and
goners will
meet
