Horsetail

Away from the floodlight and over the line
We saw it all, tenderly, but far more bright and raw this time
And once again, we must end where we begin
And once again, we will be continuing
In this same valley in a million years
Two other aching creatures will see the horsetail growing here
In a yet unspoken language they will say
‘That’s the one that used to grow in dinosaur days’
And horsetail won’t be its name any more
And this time we will be the dinosaurs
And they will wrap themselves around each other so tight
In heavy wanting, in protection from the changing of the light
And a part of each of them will hold strong
And a part of each of them will breathe long
And still a part of each of them will be shaking
As the quiet air around them keeps folding and quaking
Away from the floodlight and over the line
We saw it all, tenderly, but far more bright and raw this time
And once again, we must end where we begin
And once again, we will be continuing
And a part of each of us might be shaking
As the quiet air around us keeps folding and quaking
And still a part of each of us might be shaking
As the quiet air around us keeps folding and quaking
