Wind |
Poetry by Roger Groghan |
|
The wind is in charge of the dark tonight only stone walls can resist the flight. No whistles nor howls the sound is a force tracked by isobars. Only the slightest differences in pressure turns us and once summer strong branches into beings weak and frail. While poly-bags flap as a shredded sail as ghosts on trees as refugees caught on barbed wire fences keeping out nothing. Water submits to chaos but the satellite image shows ordered clouds round a vortex, Unseen from the view of our window. We return to bed safe in a power cut and listen to the indifferent rage. |
