jaya savige - void if removed

for Nick Drake


circus of light
men fall from the sky

airport blossom of suitcases
which one do you hide in?

you're back from the island
where a tree grows
                  up through a car
abandoned during the last war

here the months have passed
with each new batch
of baby huntsmen…
