after reading a poem by rs thomas

 after reading a poem by rs thomas 


it never stops

the drip drip drip of doubt

upon the cold stone of a mind

cornered in the stained light 

in the barrels of the sea’s fury

the hymn books dry their sog 

the pages flutter like candle moths

to catch their dust is to miss the bus

to an answer
