Winter Visitors, Carluke

seagull in the

low green sunshine

here

on this high frosted ridge

so far

from skerries, trawlings, tides

the sky is clear, the nearest

weather banked away

beyond this ridge of high

another gull comes in

on the cold tail

end of a sickle of air

there's a game to be played

ceremonial dance

and they cut

the shape of a new moon up

from the carpet of grass

into air, pure pale blue air

where the palest curve, as

thin as a pencilled line,

new moon, is

matched by a wing

being caught

in the late sun's glow

they are light

in the last of the sun

then they turn

into shadow and slide

down an arc of hunger

to crawl for crusts

that schoolkids dropped

as the class, in a heated

room, trawls each

line of words for

sense, sensation, symbol

gull alights

on that patch of green

as gull, as gull, and

grooms a wing, and settles

into the darkening grass

冬の訪問客、カールーク

カモメは

低い緑の日光に

ここ

霜立つ　高畝の

とおくは

岩小島から、トロール漁から、満ち干から

空は晴れている、接近した

天気は片側に寄り

この高畝のむこうへ

ほかのカモメがくる

冷たい尾は

　　　空の鎌の端っこに

そこにはお祝い舞踊の

会がある

そして切る

新月の形を

緑の絨毯から

空へ、純な蒼白の空へ

そこには消え入りそうな曲線、

鉛筆線のようにうすく、

新月は、

翼に似合っている

遅い太陽の光に

捉えられて

彼らは光っている

太陽の潰えのなか

かれらは戻っていく

かげりのなかへ

学童が落とす

パン屑へいざりよる

すべり要る空腹の弓

熱気ある部屋、罫線の文字を

感覚、触覚で、記号でとらえる

クラスのように、

カモメは降りてとまる

緑の区画に

カメモのように、カモメのように

そして翼を毛づくろいする

そして暗がりゆく草むらに落ち着く
