The Brothers Sueno by Kevin Jackson

6.7” tall

Did I dream it?
Union by 1 per cent
Disagree to disagree

It could have been a nightmare
Uncommonly speaking

Like an inheritance
One life only

Four-square behind him
All corners dissolved
Like tablets

Or blame.
Rude birds flap
Silently into view

What if they are ravens?
They must be hallucinations.
How many hallucinations
can one bowl hold?

I love that last question, but I'm left scratching my head here Kevin. Brothers and Union got me thinking of the Milibands . . . on the wrong track?

I love 'Rude birds flap / Silently into view', but I haven't a clue what this poem is about.
