Blue and Yellow



Blue and Yellow.
I dreamt of two bright cities, side by side,
Over, under and in-between; they looked
Into each other with blue and yellow eyes,
Whilst at my feet the midnight water
Trembled in the darkness.
I would often walk between these ridged shapes,
one foot placed blindly past the other,
and bricks would be and glass would be,
and with these eyes of mine I did not
look around me at this double-city scape.
I left the city in a boat, and crossed the water
Shivering. I looked back only once. Upon
The rippled surface of the waves, the city
Shone in bright and shadow, and in the windows
I saw reflected my own eyes –
One of blue, and one of yellow.
