AT THE FERRY Poem by Roland Jooris

AT THE FERRY



For F.D.P.
Lightly intoxicated
with mist slowness
nears us
like speech feeling its way
home

time delivers us to
the ferry, to the to and
fro, to a mooring post
stooped in thought

longing lures

despair flees
from the reed or frees
rumour

from bank to
bank, again and again
draws a haze
over a lasting
transience
