Ned RoremPoppies in October Lyrics
Even the sun-clouds this morning cannot manage such skirts
Nor the woman in the ambulance
Whose red heart blooms through her coat so astoundingly –
A gift, a love gift
Utterly unasked for
By a sky
Palely and flamily
Igniting its carbon monoxides, by eyes
Dulled to a halt under bowlers
Oh my God, what am I
That these late mouths should cry open
In a forest of frosts, in a dawn of cornflowers
