“The Hour and the Dying Hour”

“The Hour and the Dying Hour”
2006.

the first hour and the dying hour
a wider strain around
the substance of
everything that begins to weather lightning
crack
and end

These things have been named as one
The hour and the dying hour

one life
lived but not deeply
hidden without neighbours
around us spread lies like wildfire

The hour and the dying hour
necessary, both bottles
