Prophecy
Tamsin Smith


Nobody
Nobody
Nobody

Say here is a basket of sap
Here is the fall in the path
Its soil dreams of being a forest
Dry wind will braid the branches
Naked leaves in lullabye

Body
Body
Body

Fruit of the mountain peony cracks
Light spills towards the creek
You row towards the question
