Jonty Driver
Shall we somehow find ourselves
being neither right nor left
but centred down the line dividing east & west
though north & south seem always where they were
and maybe we should trust
that they will stay
just there…
And should we hope that love will balance out
sight unseen
And touch will trace the routes which lovers take
the roads closed off
diversions barred
and so stay still until the green light shows
and nothing turns itself
to something else?
