You pass through          grasses
Corridors making a child of you
Falling quiet
Dropping
              away
                       from the others
Waiting

              Curlews and skylarks echo
piebald and sand
              if you could see them

You turn         solitude       over in your hands

The others are just           beyond
the dune
