In An Ancient Woods On Fawley Down 

Sunlight only
penetrates, transforms
this tangled mound of thorns
the wild clematis

One leaf
bears all the sun’s radiance
bears all the shadows of the earth
about itself

Grass Snake 

Sprung
from stalk and dust
in burning sunshine
whip and wind and weave
through limpid water
sliding
into shade

Lunar Eclipse

Last night I walked on empty hills
and saw the full moon’s slow eclipse
all human life was held within
the shape that shaped that bloodred shadow
on the moon’s face
