And we are talking about flights.
Of longitude, latitude and madness.
How this triplet can swarm
over our canals of doubt —
pierce through bloodied tributaries.
Our losses distributed when dredged.
She’s sketching from the towpath
as they hover, dart and murder.
Flashing aquas, calculating velocity.
“A darling of dragonflies”, she says.
Perhaps she’ll ink me unknown coordinates.
I’ve read they can migrate across oceans.
