Seán Walsh: Out of Palestine

They’re gone – left the stable at first light, urgently.
                                                    Oh. Did they say why they – ?
                                   Only that the infant could be in danger if they delayed.
                                        Hmmm… They should be well to the North by –
                                                                       South.
                                                                       What?
                               They asked to be directed towards the nearest point of  entry.
                                                                       Entry?
                                                                       Egypt.
