all women need a red shawl and a black one
to keep warm, but most importantly to feel
how it flows around the body, how the wind
picks it up and dances with it - how when on
the head it shelters and entices: how it can
wrap around a baby, be tied around parcels, sat
on dirty benches and of course be elusively forgotten
so as to be remembered - and allow a re-entrance when the time is right
to allow the west wind to serve eros forever
