AN EXCURSION INTO THE INTERIOR - Chap. 6

Being 9
lost in R.M. Ballantine's

THE CORAL ISLAND
hidden in some nook and cranny

invisible to all
who seek me

call me
"Donall....Donall...where is that boy!"

Words hide me from
the world.

I wear the cloak of invisibility
diving into words

what is to become of the boys - and me
sweating madly in Chapter 3

despite the snow
howling at the window.
