INDEX OF FIRST LINES
 
 

A bang – a burning
155

Above – the well-known lips, delicately downed
114

A cool small evening shrunk to a dog bark and the clank of a bucket
87

A
fallen immortal found this valley
160

After the fiesta, the beauty contests, the drunken wrestling
133

After the five-month drought
285

Against the rubber tongues of cows and the hoeing hands of men
55

A
great bird landed here
171

A green level of lily leaves
31

A hoist up and I could lean over
32

A lamb could not get born. Ice wind
186

A leaf’s otherness
10

All darkness comes together, rounding an egg
124

And he is an owl
60

A priest from a different land
170

A primrose petal’s edge
151

Are a stage
160

A splinter, flicked
75

A stoat danced on the lawns here
26

As we came through the gate to look at the few new lambs
184

As you bend to touch
227

At nightfalll, as the sea darkens
58

At the bottom of the Arctic sea, they say
155

A trap
232
