People leave, but their memory remains.

“In Pace in Idipsum
In peace and into the same I shall sleep and rest,
If I give slumber to my eyes.
And so that rain came
as it always comes, striking cheeks and eyes.
Scything westwards from Roagh and Roy
West from the cold shelter of the great dreadnoughts,
over Laurentic and Saldanha in their sandy beds.

To rest and sleep in this bay and this,
bread warm home.
Bursting with the sounds of our past and that hope
painted in the air and on the land.”.
