I remember when the egg yolk sun ran down the sky.

I remember the blue confusion of you.

I remember a tent and crying baby in the wind.

I remember all the thickets full of shadows.

I remember how much emptiness once meant.

That's finished me off, Harvey

that and the bottle of madeira and the Asda Whoops bin roast

is emptiness a positive?

I wondered that, too.

This is an incredible poem Harvey. Absolutely love the images in the first two lines. Bob Dylanesque.
