It's Still Life

Proof That I Was

I’m feverish, my blood 
          full of penicillin, 
my head full of Gealdýr, 

and I’ve an old photo album 
           in my hand. 
           proof, 
           I was once
           there. 

a beach, long and white, 
          my children 
          young and small  
          on a holiday 

that is a figment memory.
