Summer Mourning

summer mourning, I resolved to slip away

there is nothing, there is no one who would have a word to say

I venture off down some suburban London lane

there is nothing, there is no one to whom I need explain

I turn, I turn and the houses fall behind

who would have thought that I'd be one who would so hope to find

these pale green fields, their vibrating repetition

the slight change from the morning to the afternoon edition

so long

so long

moving on

moving on

the road it narrows and head high flowers appear

thick with some toxicity, unsolved but certain fear

and in this grove, a channel cuts a small divide

I expect to find Ophelia drifting calmly by

so long

so long

moving on

moving on

so I continue, I alight upon the town

admiring the people moving purposely around

in the market there's a woman so elegantly veiled

perfect darkness of her fabric, at description I would fail

do I imagine or do I catch her gaze?

does she smile for a moment within the summer haze?

it hardly matters. did I forget to say?

I'm a spectre, I'm a shadow across a perfect summer day

moving on

for leaving off

away away away
