Of The Nightwalker

11 September 2020


Wooden beams smoulder into molten glory;

Flames licking the crevices exposed.

Life sleeps still, a cocoon protected from the elements. 

By four chairs I sit, listening to the velvet soft

Of Ed Sheeran’s hymn. 

A cacophonous sound fills the perimeter, 

Beyond the reach of my Attention’s grasp; 

While I imagine conversations with the Nightwalker above.

Who fills the sky with starry doves,

That fly and leave a trail of wonder,

Before twirling into the hidden puffs.
