Fragment Two

These New Puritans

Compositor: Jack Michael Barnett

In between the reed nodes
Where the stars are hiding
In the way that an animal wakes
There is something there

In amongst the gaps falls
Every word and silence
In crushed glass by the train line
There is something there

Something is there

In between the islands
Where we used to swim
To a place, I am on my way
I am on my way

I swam towards your ship
Like a missile guided by
Vague feelings

I swim
I swim
