Joy Division

Months ago
Or even thirty years
Something to do with control
In the fields of walking

Walking
By the reservoir
Walking
Along the country lane

Walking
With my daughter in a push-chair
Walking
With just a babe-in-arms

Today
By the leat
Or stream
Or brook

With sunlight
In place of control
And quiet enough
To hear the ticking clock

Quiet enough
To think
That in a while I could settle
To think about settling
