Come out of your sleeping state
Body and spirit

You believe something I will take another tack We can still be friends

Who knows what time is A cold distant relative who's left you behind
copyright Francis Barker 2020

Places you’ve walked by all your life,
the things you’ve missed
and taken for granted.
Windows buried, their arches
showing above ground,
what we may call Early English,
disguised by brick and tarmac –
the layers of untold history:
a million stories lost in the retelling
