THE BLUE WHALE

By Carlyle Kerslake

THE BLUE WHALE

POETRY BETWEEN THE FOREST AND THE SEA

THIS IS GREEN VELVET

THIS IS DEATH IN A FLOWER SHOP

THIS IS CHASING THE WIND

THIS IS YELLOW RAINCOATS

THIS IS WHERE THE WORLD BEGINS

THIS IS WILD TWENTY EIGHTS

THIS IS WOODEN STARS

THIS IS POETRY FROM THE SKYE

THIS IS WHERE THE SKYE MEETS THE SEA

THIS IS GRASS CARP

THIS IS ABOUT SYDNEY

THIS IS ABOUT ROME

THIS IS ABOUT CALIFORNIA

THIS IS ABOUT ISTANBUL

THIS IS ABOUT SEAGULLS

AND WATERBIRDS

THIS IS ABOUT A FISH SHOP IN MAINE

RED MULLETS

DUCK FAT

WILD WALNUTS

BLUE TITS

AND THE COST OF FLOWERS

AFTER THE RAINFALL

THIS IS ABOUT THE FOREST AND THE SEA

AND THE LAST TRAIN TO SWEDEN

THIS IS ABOUT BLUE TANGIERS

AND ZUCCHINI FLOWERS

THIS IS WHERE THE SKYE MEETS THE SEA AND BEYOND

FISH AND OLIVES

THE BLUE WHALE

SOMEWHERE OUT IN THE SKYE OF THE WORLD

AND A WOMAN CALLED UNA,

POETRY BETWEEN THE FOREST AND THE SEA
