Stuff Outside


Stuff Outside
By 
Steve Coel

Like looking out through our window I does.

Looking out 
I sometime wonders to myself 
what it must be like negotiating a way 
through all the stuff on the sidewalk.
Bit of an adventure I suspects.
There's been all sorts of complaints 
I's telling you.
Bruised knees is popular.
Letters from council has finally stopped though.
Owner'll be pleased when I sees him.

Still; we never has customers, 
so looking out the window 
gives me something to do 
while I wait to answer the phone 
and pass on the message.

Doesn't really explain 
why he always has all the stuff 
outside the shop on the sidewalk 
though does it.

Can't help wondering 
where it all comes from to be honest.

promise is a promise


promise is a promise.
By 
Steve Coel

today
doorway
long corridor

place used to be arcade
not now
shops are long gone
roof caved in
steel mesh windows
ripped out by scrappies
walls decorated
courtesy of local youth
no charge

nice touch that

so you could say
it's quiet round this way
now there's nothing left to nick

council says
places like this
is going to be developed
we'll see

meantime
it's where I comes
to spend my days
to finish jobs
I been doing during the night

I'll have finished
in about six months
anyways

do what the fuck they wants then
all of them

and if they ever
finds out 
what I been hidin'
round here
won't be any come back

promise is a promise

Cyfweliad


Darnau o gwfweliad.

Rwy'n credu y gall cymeriad cryf
awgrymu y lleoliad neu'r amgylchedd
o stori.

Ysgrifennwch a'ch clustiau.
Beth alla'i ddweud? Rwy'n gwneud llawer
o gerdded drefol. Gallwch gael gwanhano /
vibes, nid oes dim yn sefydlog.
Weithiau gall stori gael ei awgrymwyd
drwy gip, mae swn y stryd, cyfarfod
neu gwrthdaro o leisiau.

Amcana rhai o'r cymeriadau yn fy
straeon ymhyfrydu yn y trwyllwch,
ond nid pob un.
O bosibl mae teimlad drwy
gydol nad oes neb yn gwrando.

Yr hyn sy'n waeth yw bod y straeon 
effallai yn adlewyrchu ymaebion
pobl eraill, sy'n gweld yr hyn
yr wyf yn gweld a chlywed yr hyn 
yr wyf yn clywed.

Yr wyf yn ynwybodol y darllenydd /
darllen gynulleidfa neu wrando tu
hwnt neu y tu ol i'r text.
This o bosibl yw'r atyniad o
ysgrifennu microflashfiction.

Rwy'n ysgrifennu yn gyflym
i mi pan amgyffred syniad, os
wyf yn treulio gormod o amser,
yna byddaf yn collin llais y stori.
Gall ddechrau teimlo'n a sain
gorfodi, gor.
Gall colli y fizz, mae'r clecian sy'n dechrau 
yr holl beth i ffwrdd.

Microflashfiction - Steve Coel


I'r de o'r afon

Gwisgo ar gyfer y gaef ar y diwrnod 
poethaf y flwyddyn.
Felly, ble rydych bod yn cysgu?


Fan a'r lle gylfar.

Sipian ei lager ar y sedd fainc yn agos 
at y drws.
Cyntaf i ddweud helo,
olaf i ddweud
hwyl fawr.

...some rules have never been written down
because everyone knows what they is...

...a landscape of memory is being smashed,
not just threatened...

Some people, i guess, 
keep smiles to themselves.
Fair enough.

It's an odd kind of laughter
sometimes.
