{clearing the head} david caddy Cock pheasant crow, sharp and sheer, claw by tenure of space. Pollen clusters some birch-pine others ragwort, yarrow, thistle, wild garlic, cling, disturb, drift, coalesce. Grain dots and dashes, deposits, dance foragers ajar among flowers listless grasses, searing allure of webs, nests, snug fits in focussed alignment. Permeating this passage rooting plants limit tree movement leftwards to the right a chalk stream, wind break, blackthorn, rosehip dominated. Breathe this clearing, trodden Roman layers, tree whispers, habitat, open to light raw and polished sounds language of passageway, screams rewritten under spoil spruce, hazel covers, stressed pulse slip, hung over curls. Your smiling presence, deftness of touch, integrity. Your grid. |
