Tower Poetry (1991) cover art by Kim Davis

WRITTEN IN CHARACTERS

Words blew upwards
caught in trees
sat on branches
and
laughed with us

Below, we stood and
called — in vain —
sorrowful, we left

Later on
a gale blew;
next morning,
under the trees,
we found
our poems

— Anneke Buys

An annual collaboration
of Tower poets and local artists
