taking us with it, so we waved goodbye
to the selves that we were yesterday
and left them ashore like a memory

admiring the vistas of being away
while the shadows died down from the flames of day
and we coasted around a long headland of sky
and into night's port while, out in the bay
tomorrow called out like a ringing buoy. — Gwyneth Lewis
