rising on the bright rim of the black cloud, dark in the sun-dazzle floating upon it.

Dark red glasswort shining like drowned blood.

blue sky crumbling into mist.

Starlings poured back like jets of smoke.

The sunburnt sky grew hot.

I see the most beautiful birds in the most beautiful trees

the sun was shining from the centre of a great blue circle.

the mauve haze of the northern sky.

Colour ebbed to brilliant chiaroscuro.

‘Vokins, what d’you need a ham for?’

deep stillness, between the early stars and the long afterglow.

Dim, flat, desolate lands that cauterise all sorrow.

into the cold unworldliness of water

a memory as vivid as burning magnesium.

Da'at and the Great Abyss.

A slow low note and an iron bell.

What says the Clock in the Great Clock Tower?

beyond the Loadstone Mountain

That lives in memory

Amid the cloudy wrack
