Telemachus 6



How long will you stay in the tower?


You, who saved us from drowning
will soon cease to be
like the God of English
like the God of Gentlemen


You’re a dark man, a panther really,
shot from a cannon
and now having a snotty nose you show
your shaven cheek
your dreadful blade
and you wipe it clean then
gaze from the parapet again,
at the snotgreen sea.

You think of Mulligan and other dactyls
