All Catches Alight
Climbing The Hill Within The Deafening Wind
Conscript
The Dancer
Dawn
Heaviest Of Flowers, The Head
The Horns Of The Morning
I Dreamed Of An Out-thrust Arm Of Land
I Put My Mouth
If Grief Could Burn Out
If Hands Could Free You, Heart
Is It For Now Or For Always
Kick Up The Fire
Like The Train's Heat
Love, We Must Part Now
Morning Has Spread Again
Night-music
The North Ship
Nursery Tale
One Man Walking A Deserted Platform
Pour Away That Youth
So Through That Unripe Day You Bore Your Head
Song: 65 Degrees N
Song: 75 Degrees. Blizzard
This Is The First Thing
Ugly Sister
Waiting For Breakfast, While She Brushed Her Hair
Winter
Within The Dream You Said
