Unfamiliar Legends of the Stars

The wind turbine propels a sky
fighter grey above.

The tallest angel’s head
curved the night.

A liquorice cable
wires hand to mouth.

Proud magpies
raced the dawn home.

Asphalt remains lively
weeks after its laying.

The water-girls laughed
and were exiled.

Things happen
and are wrapped in newspaper.

A seamstress sewed a spirit
from a bird’s skin.

I put a ring around your name
and circle the globe.
