when
I was animal alive 
 
much bitten 
shade cast 
 
hot, cold, grown over
 
all you others too 
 
here was our sudden time of year 
 
we were slow to the moment 
 
laughing it past
yet to arrive 
 
others told up light 
 
fine webs 
a fuss of petal fallen 
 
so many ways of a thing awry 
 
feet on the ground
nose led 
 
had run of the place 
tail to chase 
 
where was the music from then?
 
none of this 
who we ought to be 
 
had the eye 
blood telling round
you could hear it then
 
was always glory coming 
 
some would say the day
