Greedy Laughter

Here - 

Where...filmed movement is bound by derelict building and deadwood fire..

Where...sober silent conversations are concerned and paper free..

Where...official tattooed authority is broken by wired library bench seat..

Where...early evening heron fishing gets plastic bag poison water netted..

Where...greedy laughter clings to painted doorway shadow..

is the place language comes to die

Painted Hatred

Here -

Where...silence is timed..

Where...kerbside road walking is never local..

Where...car lights halt hooded debt collection..

Where...early morning cigarettes are gathered from canal path bin..

Where...painted hatred shows handcuffed hints of humour..

is the place language comes to die.

Sad Eyes

Here -

Where...crowded thoughts are positioned above empty guide dog begging..

Where...plastic bag clumsiness shelters fenced bus stop..

Where...shadow glassed laughter becomes bitter and sad-eyed..

Where...blistered wood holds signed memories of yesterdays bargains..

Where...puddle damp trainers split through confused traffic..

is the place language comes to die.

Metallic Stumble

Here -

Where...straight talking is a cold charmless metallic click..

Where...wind launched building demolition scratches neighbourhood itch..

Where...stickered light falls on damp nylon shoe..

Where...last nights takeaway guides corner walled stumble..

Where...gritted smoke sticks to dark glass passenger..

is the place language comes to die.

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.

Wire Horizons

Here -

Where...truck loaded panel shelters are fragile and small minded..

Where...bird wire horizons become tortured tree reminders of industry..

Where...casual uniform is formal authority threat to liquid thought..

Where...lamp post stickers appeal to irrational voted thinking..

Where...empty towers crumble into bottled grass memory of a good better time..

is the place language comes to die.

Tin Canal

Here -

Where...alarmed rent money is silently spent..

Where...hi-rise wind flows between tin canal and secretly painted terrace..

Where...glued actions bustle into map markets..

Where...electric fear spreads from street to newspaper columned whisper..

Where...window shadow warnings are ignored..

is the place language comes to die.
