Walking Alone


Walking alone at night,
I am away from the noisy world.
Silence is the loudest sound.

I will be home a little
Earlier,go back to the home where
light was off;
Dirty dishes sleep where they sleep this morning.
Everyone I know is hundreds of kilometres away,
But I am alone in my apartment.

No one knows that I am home earlier tonight,
To wait for a familiar voice, a familiar shadow, a familiar...
Or a surprise?
When I wrap myself with my memories and thoughts,
They make me warm and strong.

It's my mistake.
I should not be home this early, when
No one is home.

The white surf flicked on a coral reef, and beyond that the open sea was dark blue reef

The bright sun, the whelming sea and sweet air
Taut wire of the horizon


Floods of light fell more nearly to the perpendicular,
 The stark colours of the morning were smoothed in pearl and opalescence
The bushes were dark evergreen and aromatic,and the many buds were waxen green and folded up against the light


This is an island
Inside the lagoon was peacock water, rocks, and weed showing as in an aquarium
Coral was scribbled in the sea as though a giant had bent down to reproduce the shape of the island in a flowing,chalk line but tired before he had finished


The air was thick with butterflies, lifting, fluttering, settling
All around him the long scar smashed into the jungle was a bath of heat
Forced at last to believe in the reality of the island


The afternoon died away,
The circular spots of sunlight moved steadily over green fronds and brown fiber but no sound came from behind the rock
Within the diamond haze of the beach something dark was fumbling along…

Then the creature stepped from the mirage on to clear sand,and they saw the darkness was not all shadow but mostly clothing
Fear can’t hurt you any more than a dream
Behind him came the twins, worried now for a while but full of unquenchable vitality
