Who wrote it? The lough waters Can petrify wood: Old oars and posts Over the years Harden their grain, Incarcerate ghosts Of sap and season The shallows lap And give and take: Constant ablutions, Such drowning love Stun a stake To stalagmite. Dead lava, The cooling star, Coal and diamond Or sudden birth Of burnt meteor Are too simple, Without the lure That relic stored A piece of stone On the shelf at school, Oatmeal coloured.   Hugh Witemeyer won last month's Who Wrote It, identifying the excerpt from Mrs Dalloway by Virginia Woolf. The first entry identifying the above piece and its author, drawn after the close of entries on Monday, September 15, will receive a $30 voucher from University House. Click HERE to enter.
