The White Shadows of Summer

Hang around the edge of town,
Glad for a town with an edge
That's not just another town
But a genuine end drawn
Where memory's woods push in,
A line that says no telling
What you might remember next.

Barnacle goslings on cliffs
Fledge by bouncing off the rocks,
Two-hundred meter swan dives
That frequently end in death,
Small balls of fluff that can't fly
Quite. There are no trees near them.
Even then, dark woods push in.
