AT RHODES – Durrelliana
https://whitemetropolis.wordpress.com/2013/12/20/at-rhodes
AT RHODES (LAWRENCE DURRELL). Anonymous hand, record one afternoon,. In May, some time before the fig-leaf:. Boats lying idle in the sky, a town. Thrown as on a screen of watered silk,. Lying on its side, reddish and soluble,. A sheet of glass leading down into the sea . . . Down here an idle boy catches a cicada:. Imprisons it, laughing, in his sister’s cloak. In whose warm folds the silly creature sings. Shape of boats, body of a young girl, cicada,. Conspire and join each other here,. December 20, 2013.
