Under the Saman

Richard Butler Glaenzer

UNDER the circular shadow of the jetty’s saman

Creamy high-humped cattle munch the sweet pods:

The zebus browse placidly against the blue and black

Of the sea and a distant promontory.

On this promontory de Bouillé defeated Stuart;

On this sea Rodney defeated de Grasse.
