New potatoes
Buried in darkness,
but umbilically linked
to a mother husk,
seven pearly potatoes
must surrender to the spade.
*
Found objects
Watch how willow twigs,
translucent feathers,
lichen, fine hairs are woven
into model coracles
harboured high up in a tree.
*
Revealed
Tattered petticoat
slips off in the wind
leaving a dark skeleton.
