Fanny Hogg leaving
No-one on the pier
To wave her away
Goodbye to the baskets
In an angle in the breakfast room
Goodbye little brother
With your long face
Small smooth shells
On the great strand
Come little Fanny Hogg
Be an outlaw for us
Bring what you own
In a zine box
Your linens
Your simplest stitchings
Your evening headcloths
Your confident plainness
Look at your elegant son
Squaring up landscapes
And your other son
A captain in a war
All happening as you set out
Oh Fanny
