An original from the beginning of 2018, written after returning from a visit to the Holy Land, with the tropical land of Indonesia (both naturally and symbolically green) and a certain woman who lived there in mind, imagining it would my next port of call (it was) and that she would become my wife (she did... It sounds kind of overly romantic but it actually played out that way). I'd dreamed the line with the green pillow in it and just made it into a conceit which fitted what I was contemplating at the time.
