December, Australia

[hylas]

The grey sky hung like a flannelette sheet.
Frayed a bit with yellow light, the centre traps
the muggy air. The sea will wet the hems of it.

I think my Nan has tucked it there.
Anxious in December that we might catch chill,
she snuck in with the moon as we slept.

The grey sky hangs like a flannelette sheet,
I think my Nan has tucked it there.

Frayed with yellow light, the centre traps
the muggy air. 

The sea will wet the hems, anxious
that we might catch chill

in December, as we slept
she snuck in with the moon.
