Yew
Trees Paul Conneally a yew tree standing in its own darkness
you notice him
in a crowded room everyone does we were so much alike he even shared my make-up
a young man standing in his own darkness solitary tree of vast circumference evening shadows
he stayed with me for the first few months but then he left a man like him needs space we live in one bedroom
solitary boy in the shopping mall a few loose coin pillared shade four trees with huge trunks of intertwisted fibres
we come here often
resting under the yew trees on the old park bench his dad comes sometimes when he remembers
pillared shade he makes this weeks rent in the coppice below the branches grassless floor of red and brown leaf litter
he's a good baby
never causes a big fuss just like his dad was according to grandma he can already say "dad"
