Pretend Hats - Steve Coel

Walking Notes [ November 2019 ]

Sand slipstreams

Ugly water washes up dead fish

Sharp grass holds the broken fence

Spindles of cold web frame the splintered window

The slippery path creaks with unearthed memories

Unaccustomed smells, stale with twisted intent

Padlocks protect broken fields from broken people

Arcades brimming with pretend hats and spiteful games

Debt plagues you like two coins rubbed clear

These hills are consuming their history 
as the past is slowly wiped out by nature
