i)
Melon Hill shivers beyond the dunes
a long and winding sentence
of crackling leaves and broken branches
finishes at the weather-beaten door
chill winds off the Indian Ocean
blow lace curtains open
ink dries as
Word One waits for Word Two
ii (on alan park next door)
a songless willy-wagtail
fossicks around
the new season's goalposts
floodlit training later
aerates the grass
and will see willy
back for breakfast
