Considering A Shed in Blackheath Village
I launch these words in that paper boat,
Inconsequential, yet emblematic
Like the kites, sky-squiggles in another.
A beauty dressed in polka dots or stripes,
Arms folded, feathers in her hat, seated
In Night and Day, she gazes into our eyes
Out of the privacy of her single room.
On the far side of the Falls Road Conflict
Resolution Services and Suicide
Awareness & Support Group, and here
One of the loveliest rooms in the world.
Michael Longley’s latest collection is The Stairwell (Jonathan Cape)
