"- George -"

Obadiah Grey

When squares disappear
and edges burr,
when a root of the round
abounds.

When anathematic steel
succumbs to rust;

Then, horsepower will
revert to horse and –
the kingfisher
will truly be king.

And the trees will thrum
and grasses dance
in the old bluebell wood,
the oak,
the ash,
the elm;
everything will be
as it should,

with the green man--
at the helm.

    Very nice--dancing away from reality.
    But anathematic?
    Webster quick.
    See--you already caused me to move--on the way to being moved.
