A Thing, Remembered Poem by james watkin

A Thing, Remembered



These woodlouse in the glare
Of corrugated fences
Are metallic balls!
Out from a hot alley
Can yet see, in myself
What of it enthralls.

Minor thing, yes; but shared
With what's been long since
Face-stood over thus:
What for an exhibit
In glass case achieves
Immortal status.
