What is a demon? Study my life. <br />What is a mountain? Set out now. <br />What is fire? It is for ever. <br />What is my life? A fall, a call. <br />What is the deep? Set out now. <br />What is thunder? Your power dry. <br />What is the film? It rolls, it tells. <br />What is the film? Under the Falls. <br />Where is the theatre? Under the hill. <br />Where is the demon? Walking the hills. <br />Where is the victory? On the high tops. <br />Where is the fire? Far in the deep. <br />Where is the deep? Study the demon. <br />Where is the mountain? Set out now. <br />Study my life and set out now. <br /> <br />'Demon'; , Glasgow: Mariscat Press, 1999, p. 28.<br /><br />Edwin Morgan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-little-catechism-from-the-demon/
