Kissing in hats

Synopsis

The poem Kissing in hats is a villanelle, a verse form where the regular repetition of two key lines gives added urgency to what is being said.
The effect is intensified here by double tracking of the speaker's voice, as a moving path scans a drawing of World War Two lovers kissing in hats
before the men must board their train. This is a new version with the text of the poem on screen.
