Neville

Abattoir Gulls

Abattoir Gulls

 

Diving and banking

Like

Storm shooed clouds

Those

Abattoir gulls

Always

Angry and loud

Dancing and scything

High upon higher

Pinned to the sky

On invisible wire

How they do hang

There

Storm proof and crazy

Loitering low like

Clouds of confetti

Reckless and teasing

Storm flushed and florid

Diving and banking

Sublimely unhurried   

Weaving

Yet threadbare

High upon higher

Pinned to the sky

On invisible wire

Take heed of their cry

Then still

Lost to the wind

Carried pon whispers

Deliciously sinned

Those abattoir gulls

Shameless and free

Dancing and scything

High upon higher

Forever  

Pinned to our sky

On invisible wire
