  • Bridges and rivers
    And buildings pulled down
    Time spent in places my footsteps had found
    Mirrors in ballrooms lie smashed on the ground,
    Walking with November mists

    Pathways and windows
    And movies in May
    Quiet old ladies who soon pass away
    Paintings and songs that I'd done in a day
    Going round in my head

    Fires on spires and chimneys of black
    Fields on horizons with pylons that crack
    With singing sad wires of council house mystics
    To apply their statistics
    And read the tea leaves,
    Time knows no limits for days such as these Writer/s: BILL NELSON
