Farmland in Meath
Hill of Tara
From up here, this
landscape is a cubist composition ─
a shattered windscreen.
Closer: traces of
ancient earthworks ─
pre-historic worm
spirals beneath the skin.
Closer: tumuli, eyes
fixed to the cosmos ─
birthmarks of science.
Closer: chevrons,
spirals, sunbursts ─
birthmarks of art.
