Ballast From A 'shipwreck' Poem by Neil Crawford

Ballast From A 'shipwreck'



Here, on this whim,
rests my wilful monolith
its roots in webs
of tangled style.

Now, on this shore,
I wreck my wayward boat
and cry from sand to nimbus
for stablising anchors.

No, not a ball and chain,
though now it would suffice
to glimpse a ghost in its
memory manacles than to live
a life of unfettered bliss.
