in copper light
Wells Cathedral
is a palace
   made of iron

at noon
      a bell clangs
   dispersing
a cloud of birds

rounding the corner
the cathedral
    becomes unreal

       contours sharpen
       verticals warp

a dog’s bark
scuffs the silence

stand back
look around

a green
a cathedral

an observer
a camera

alchemy of light
    and lenses

later
in a dark room
     a dream remembered
     a memory dreamt
