doitit he liggs on clints
waasht up - the yin on the brae
skairs's pyne
demented he lies on rocks
washed up - the one on the hill
shares his pain
(howson's judas)
ristin on an ashet
flet peaches -
thair sax bare erses
resting on a plate
flat peaches -
their six bare bottoms
ettlin tae fit
key tae lock -
the bodach's trummlin haun
trying to fit
key to lock -
the old man's trembling hand
heavin up
frae the lum-heid
a coomy craw
rising
from the chimney-pot
a sooty crow
speuggie keeks
throuch the wisteria
...his purpie dreidlocks
sparrow peeps
through the wisteria
...his purple dreadlocks
pop-concert -
alang the wey,
gairden wa's broukit wi pish
en-route, garden walls
stained with urine
waddin day -
cleidit brawly in fite
the haw-tree
wedding day -
dressed in glorious white
the hawthorn
schuil Mass
...ah hearken
tae the rowin thunner
school Mass
...I hear
the rolling thunder
