hasPoem A process in the weather of the heart
A saint about to fall
After the funeral
All all and all
Altarwise by owl-light
And death shall have no dominion
Because the pleasure-bird whistles
Before I knocked
Find meat on bones
Hold hard, these ancient minutes in the cuckoo's month
I dreamed my genesis
I fellowed sleep
I make this in a warring absence
I, in my intricate image
I, in my intricate image, stride on two levels
If I were tickled by the rub of love
Light breaks where no sun shines
My world is pyramid
Now
Once it was the colour of saying
Our eunuch dreams
The Hand that Signed the Paper
The ballad of the long-legged bait
The force that through the green fuse drives the flower
The mouse and the woman
The seed-at-zero
The tombstone told when she died
There was a saviour
When, like a running grave
