INVIGILATOR : DERBY 'Rapture'

photo by kevin ryan


RAPTURE

beneath gloomy hills
homeward i walk
in solitude

sometimes we play
on the way home from school
on Wincobank Hill
breaking into gangs
to throw stones at each other

off Newman Road
in the half-built houses
it’s hide and seek
up and down ladders
scaffold pole javelins


a happy time
for me a time of rapture
clear and loud
