<strong>the</strong> <strong>wonderful</strong> <strong>bird</strong> Ardingly College 2010<br />
As <strong>the</strong> glade of richness tumbles dry and <strong>the</strong> pleasing pollen engulfs a sneeze, a sigh<br />
erupts from <strong>the</strong> mountainous high and quivers, ripens in <strong>the</strong> breeze and through <strong>the</strong><br />
trees – earth’s rotten hairs, <strong>the</strong> snares, <strong>the</strong> wares and <strong>the</strong> could-not-cares – rumbles on<br />
and on, wh<strong>is</strong>pers to and fro, and we stumble upon doom from foe upon tomb from<br />
toe. Screams of d<strong>is</strong>tress, streams of finesse, <strong>the</strong> warpings of time and <strong>its</strong> limitlessness. I<br />
am <strong>the</strong> trees, I am th<strong>is</strong> ocean, I am th<strong>is</strong> mountain maintaining devotion, emotion yet<br />
steady in motion. Impressive, implosive and yet lacking motive. To soar and subside, to<br />
feel and to wri<strong>the</strong>, to live in <strong>the</strong> skin of what lived and what dies. As <strong>the</strong> heart beats on<br />
th<strong>is</strong> <strong>is</strong> worn. Intricate, incarnate, <strong>the</strong> beating of our fate, to ponder <strong>the</strong> yonder, to be<br />
and be gone, go here and beyond, hear sculpture, see song, erase what <strong>is</strong> known which<br />
<strong>is</strong> knowing what <strong>is</strong> known, which <strong>is</strong> knowing what <strong>is</strong> knowing what <strong>is</strong> knowing what <strong>is</strong><br />
known, and altering <strong>the</strong> tone of th<strong>is</strong> moan.<br />
