Adult Hands
Here -
Where...illegal plastic high releases urgent stammered step..
Where...solitary private glass is windowed in shoddy single drinking room..
Where...stolen adult hands are nailed..
Where...blown factory wall rage by-passes toughened water..
Where...sponsored imagination drains away through rusting pipe..
is the place language comes to die.
Wired Beauty
Here -
Where...drowned road happiness is traded for pennies..
Where...beauty is inked into loose skin..
Where...hostel dispute is shop door knuckled..
Where...salted air breathing is a painful reminder of loss..
Where...wired thought becomes backroom industry..
is the place language comes to die.
Metal Carpet
Here -
Where...knotted metal carpet rolls lean on concrete window salesroom..
Where...reflected sleep is caught shuffling across bridged river..
Where...drained smiles remain confused..
Where...doctored papers shield gridded nylon building..
Where...ordered talk is wooden ..
is the place language comes to die.
