Urughart – v2

The ruins of red brick and stone

just above the surface of Loch Ness;

I stared out into the mist

hanging over the water.

I walk down to the shore, by the edge;

I was drawn back in time.

She was out there, but invisible to me;

I sensed her presence,

hidden in the fog, of time,

the peated deep,

the enlightened “reality” of science.

How sad for us all.
