a playroom's slender orbits,
'to see you again without knowing...'
ф
...a disruption in the fabric; a rediscovered diary entry ('the face in the park belonged to her...'). Memories arise like possession: a stylish, if slightly run down part of the city; a plaintive song evoking one remembered as the dark angel. Outside, evening sun highlights rusting balconies, something lost in concert music reappears...
ф

at evening's clerestory, deep sea
regions, dark, anonymous sleep...
ф
notes for a fragile spring (extracts)
1. '...to sleep this starry surface she images herself primitive beneath modern centuries...
2. ...moon-marbled, skin like sea-washed stone
3. 'a coastal town in Europe, another curtain about to rise...
