Going down to the river darling
You go down to the river Darling:
The calm part, behind the old trees.
You go in the calm of the moonshine –
You go where the grass blades cut
Skin of those that willingly lie
Here in the willow-bend.
Where, darkling flourish, in the calm crook
Of your waiting arms…
I am the river Darling, I am the dark flow with
under tides. I am calm at this juncture,
but the river hides it's fury
ever after here.
