Another North

Sunday afternoon's LitFest event was tea with Jacques Darras, a poet who does not come from Arras but from the nearby city of Amiens. This makes him, as he proudly proclaims, a northerner.
( Nord / North )

I look into this distorting mirror, and don't quite recognise my own north: the same elements come out of order, the patterns are repeated but out of scale, it's like but not like.
