#2384 -- an undetermined sky

 




2384

an undetermined sky

ekphrastic for Jane Sutherland’s 1893 ‘after autumn rains’

 

rough limbs of nothing quite to shape

as if in gilt to crack with time

 

finally the place as altered

not much here to read

 

just as it is – grazed and the cattle gone

weed risen from the unseen dung

 

unpeopled for a present purpose

just another little forever

 

one doubts that it will last
