Arthur's Seat

Arthurs_seat (Edinburgh Festival and Fringe Picture Gallery)



Time makes solid

The bubbling earth

Its hurlings frozen

In black gestures


Years of sleep bring

The soft grass

To calm the memory

And bring little Ishbel, with her red cheeks

To play in the shadows

Of a catastrophe.
