Dusk
day of order where I am safe as a ruin against scandal
may I retire into my thousands of books with their unrest
I shall have an orange and just one light for all the evening
silence growing between us like a door to the north
Erasure poem derived from The Diary of Samuel Pepys, Monday 30 December 1667.
