Nest of Tables

Hard in this country to be further from sand and sea

Or rather further from sea and sand

Hard, or it used to be

To be nearer to steel and blacking

Or further from bragging

About the need to steal

Untitled (AR/PO6-16)

I stopped

I wondered if you'd slipped, tripped applying the silver foil

Struck me as lazy to have misplaced the rubber stamp


Manicured streets, trim cut paper; stripes in a city of stripes

Yet hardly a blue

Which I know to some in this city, is no colour at all

Emotion Field 1

I've saved you until last

You were the nosiest

Having a ball

Your rhythms & your voices


Clever


Televisions flickering

Synchronized with soul

Northern music

Northern re-generation

Portrait by speed disk (Dorothea)

Only because you were on the long wall

Otherwise you did nothing for me

Nothing at all

Shadow Machine

Tick tock - stop

Please everybody slow down

Let's begin with a whisper

Tip - top, slow-down, stop


A pin point balance, rocking to and fro

The metronome swings towards home

Its shade travels ever so slight behind

For now it is the afterglow
