Chapbook, published to coincide with the launch of Animals Indoors, designed and hand printed by Brendan O’Brien in the Rita Angus Cottage (12 July 2000).
THE INTRANSIGENT TRAVELLER
has gone to the farm
but he doesn’t think
he will stay
more than a couple of days.
He has a situation with cattle
which can be seen
from dining room windows,
other people’s plates
and India
north of Delhi
where a waiter
with three thumbs
once served him
an omelette.
