#1413 - as if squint

as if squint

ekphrastic for David Davies’ 1905 ‘Cornish Village at Sunset’

 

coming into autumn

a gate, a window

 

tree leant

chimney

 

all these leaves to fall

 

downpipe to take

 

colours of light

some days as if found in the palette

 

a last sun rots

this bright patch of wall

 

built things left to crumble

 

white bonnet

busying

 

I, behind, before

come, go

 

no sign of the sea
