Selections from a new collection of pensee on mountains, walking and viewing, a-ga, illustrated with photographs of word-mntn.
a-ga: Sanskrit, ‘mountain,
that which does not go’
with one hand
we may blot it out
for a change of air, meaning,
a change of breath.
resting on the summit
is higher than the mountain
the deer’s place: wilderness
mountains demand vigilance
he had his moor on top of his mountain
on a fault
a-ga, morning star, 2014; available now, £5 (plus postage)
The book was published for the exhibition Walking Poets, Dove Cottage, Ambleside.
word-mntn woodblock sculptures available from Ingleby Gallery
