Where Did He Come from, That Man with the Shining Smile?

It Was the Savage Boys Watching from the Cliffs

At the Interval, as the Applause Dies Away and People Begin to Make for the Exits

The Garage Door Ajar, the Van Backed Up to It

Outside the Restaurant I Paused

On This Day, the First Recorded Total Eclipse of Scotland Took Place

Amid the Fumy, Head-Pounding Traffic, on the Other Side of the Glass, Upside Down Almost, a Tangle-Haired, Grinning Face

Something Was Eating the Poison in the Woodshed, Lots of It

Heroic', That Was a Favourite Word of His.
