these songs
- these songs
- for both of you
- scenes flicked
- past like a train
- rattling landscapes
- bound & stapled
- collected through
- the fast growing years
- Emily, you wrap
- your hand around
- the spokes of your cot
- & sleep exhausted dreams
- & Molly, your covers
- flung at sea
- having finally surrendered
- to the day
- & as father
- i visit & revisit
- the length of breath
- these songs
- sung to a black print sky
