Dónall Dempsey - ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' 'OBJECT D'ART

As easily
as a child's mobile

my great whale skeleton
hangs above your head.

My bones
now a museum piece.

My death
your Art.

I hover
in the air

above your gaze

remember the depths
diving deeper.

My shadow swims
in memory

my shadow
swimming through you

as I exist
in another dimension

beyond this

where all is
sea & sunlight

sunlight
& sea

my mother
calling me.
