Dish in the paddock, where a standing stone

Had been resituated and landscaped,

With tourist signs in futhark runic script

In Danish and in English. Things had moved on.

It could have been Mulhollandstown or Scribe.

The by-roads had their names on them in black

And white; it was user-friendly outback

Where we stood footloose, at home beyond the tribe,

More scouts than strangers, ghosts who’d walked abroad

Unfazed by light, to make a new beginning

And make a go of it, alive and sinning,

Ourselves again, free-willed again, not bad.
