And I look up at the sky Towards the point where sky encounters the water And I reflect On the early spring in Europe in 1914 At the very height Of the world they built They destroyed it For no reason

A reminder for Edinburgh-based folks, I'll be doing a short talk about Watership Down + introducing a screening at this fiendish film festival a week today!
