A Choreographer's Cartography
Sheep Hill, Fair Isle
I begin sheepishly.
Feel with fingers,
attempt to roo
your softness taut
in struggle. I soothe
with lullaby,
you settle. In no time
at all the shear’s song
reveals your baby skin.
You free yourself
of me. Hoof away. My fingers
lanolin soft with your memory.
Raman Mundair
Roo (Shetland dialect) – To remove fleece by hand
