The rain pissed down on |
|
Leven's shores. |
|
The sane rain would rain on superstores and set off car alarms in our street. |
|
Let's burn our clothes and hunt our meat. |
|
A day of skies, a day of feasts, we fell to bed, to grunt like beasts. |
|
We could live in your wee car, we could never go too far. |
|
A flash of sun between your thighs, a perfect black shape to protect my eyes. |
|
A swooping hawk, a dying tree. "**** me," says he, "**** you," says she. |
|
If I'm a clown, then you're a mime but |
|
I'm sure that we'd be friends in time. |
|
The selkie put her skin back on and swam away, back to her own. |
