a spine like a keyboard / the blacks
intersecting the whites / ridges like
a bookshelf / tracing the line with
a careful finger / I am brought back
to road trips in Iceland / the un-
certainty of an off-road track /
our wheels caked deep in snow /
the burst tyre / our car a drop of
blood on a canvas / night in
all directions / and the miracle
of another car passing in the
dark / it was a statistical
improbability / how two cars
may meet when neither should
have been / your face a field
covered in tomorrow / your
body a conduit for my body /
there is too much warmth
here / which is to say that I
want more / how we let ourselves
fall into the bank / our shape
imprinted into a book / only to
be slowly filled in again / God
as the slowest writer / what
it must be to see your plot
of sky whited over / correct
this fault / make it even / make
it so / how you are a solution /
to a problem no-one knows
