Sketch by Andy Eycott

I see him 

through the camera lens, 

ghost of my father, 

in a moment caught out of time 

*

I see him 

reflection in a mirror, 

as age creeps into the lines, 

the story held in my image 

*

I didn’t see him 

in the youth of me and now 

not all the time, just in glimpses, 

like a sketch in one of his books
