Two pieces (II)

[See foreword for "Pieces (I)"]

"Eyes, The Truth-Tellers"*
(Of a girl glimpsed on Buchanan Street, Glasgow)

Her eyes were unworldly—a blue almost luminescent—
piercing as the bite of a frigid winter morning.


"Man, The Master"ª

By one willed movement of my hand I swept the dust off the tabletop:
I changed the universe, and foresaw the end of existence.
