POETRY

Motorway Dream

The deadened, never-ending grey
of a cumulonimbus swirl
filled up the sky and ahead no glimpse
of expanding flame

and night came.

Pressed down,
I lifted eyes to blackness

peppered with vision: specks of white
demarcation, slip road
greens, red edges.

I followed

and saw you stood
by a broken snare
on a blue drenched back
lane, smiling as though
you were always there, as though
we had only ever been
cast in light.
