Lampedo part three

Part three of my Lampedo sequence, as included in Once Wild  the anthology from the 2014 Newcastle Poetry Prize available from the Hunter Writers Centre.

After too long

You come from the dark with durian on your face,
your bow slung across your chest. Our streets reek

And a friendly reminder, as of April 2017, my first collection – BONE INK – is available here Lampedo is included in the collection.
