Nineteen Eighty Kevin Donnelly Bourton on the Water |
Nineteen Eighty Here, watching glass, I saw him before pictures. I was waiting for a time to speak but his voice broke the air - I have never lost myself here or felt the sleep of song, I never wanted a future, or space; I wanted to see the rain fall from leaden skies and hear a cry above the coins. Here, watching glass, I faded a man into prices, caught his mind in a tangle of fear. So that was what he had to say, and he cast an echo after all. The future is numb beneath soaked concrete: I would have walked away but his face was still a sight.
