uplands

 uplands


there amongst the stones and the dry grasses

collect the cold lake’s standing

stirred only by the sometimes reflection 

of a buzzard screwing the clouds to the blue

or shaking down the dandruff of the first snows 

sheep wooled to the fence’s browning barbs

the understoneing of the wrigglies bedding down

all along the paths out of here until tomorrow or

tomorrow’s tomorrow when the sun returns its favours

and everything rises again
