Alcaics in North Wales
The song of Bran’s head: cut it off, fuckers… Now
You think I’m gone? Good. Now all the winds are still
And night is lapping at the shore. Now
Troublesome forces are quiet, you say?
The hills are black, birds sleep in penumbral trees,
The mountain grass holds whispers of what there was
And what thereof remains in this land:
Somewhere and silently, something dark moves…
Brief Bio
My name is James and I gather the winds
And ride the ox in pursuit of the hare
And swim against the raging tides
