Summary
We say Next time we’ll go away,
But then the winter happens, like a secretWe’ve to keep yet never understand
As daylight turns to cinema once more:A lustrous darkness deep in ice-age cold,
And the print in need of restorationStarting to consume itself
With snowfall where no snow is falling now.Or could it be a cloud of sparrows, dancing
In the bare hedge that this gale of lightIs seeking to uproot? Let it be sparrows, then,
Still dancing in the blazing hedge,Their tender fury and their fall,
Because it snows, because it burns."At the Solstice," Shaun O'Brien
