All too human
All too human at Tate Britain
Couples, families, groups of friends, folks on their own
A Sunday tradition, on Easter Monday
Headscarfs had to be worn
In the mosque
All too human at Tate Britain
You did not loiter
Headscarfs had to be worn
No place really for a woman
All too human
Too much violence in the Quran
You did not loiter
Look again at portraiture
A Sunday tradition, on Easter Monday
See just how the artists interpret our life
No place really for a woman
In the mosque
Spaces not filled with the peacefulness of peace
Look again at portraiture
Too much violence in the Quran
Spaces not filled with the peacefulness of peace
Couples, families, groups of friends, folks on their own
See just how the artists interpret our life
Most days I would try to write a poem; it is a practice, as I suppose is meditation, or smiling, or watching the world go by

Cube 3: Left, back, right, front, top, bottom
Abandoned car
On the ring road
Police are aware stickers
Over smashed in windows
Maybe with a crowbar
Police are aware stickers
Someone must have been really angry
Someone must have done something very wrong
Perhaps gang warfare, or drug dealers
Or a seriously broken relationship
Someone must have been really angry
To cause so much wanton damage
What will it take for recovery
On the ring road
Or a seriously broken relationship
To make one lose one’s senses
What will it take for recovery
