by one particular person

i thought of dust

dust behind the door

dust beneath the floorboards

yes i said the past is always

where the dust settles

he wasn’t aware

if his vertebrae

stacked up straight

Down at Godrevy

Sea cold coca cola

Salt and Asti Spumante

Champagne supernova

Big blue Atlantic sea

There’s burger and there’s onions

There are barbecues for free

Away from mother Meavy

Down at Godrevy

There’s mother’s flying kites

With ladders in their tights

Its natures might

This big blue Atlantic Sea

Sun’s been up for hours

Though it’s the going down I’ve come to see

I’m captured by the guileless wonder

Of Godrevy’s big blue Atlantic sea
