• Grand Salvo
• he raises her gently into a chair. she tells him how to make a sling for her arm using a tea towel. as he works she marvels at his face

a light in the east
a bird on the sill
boy in the attic he is sober now

he clears his mess
into cupboards and desks
all but the picture against his chest

the carpet flares
the suns now there
smell of toast burning up the stairs

he quietly leaves
the room in peace
an empty stage of a distant play

he hears a scream
the kettles steam
still at the door for a second before he runs in

my fears all gone
I see the dawn and I know the boy will be down soon
and he'll pick me up
and see I'm hurt
and call the nurse
and they'll come and take me away
and I wont be coming back again

we'd dance
him a devil and me a witch
a spell cast
never leaving each others arms

(his silhouette at the door
a shape I've known so long)

(hold me in your arms
just like a child again
like we were never apart)
