Pigeon Park

Mad girl reads lesson
to legal secretary clans
mouth/ eyes swollen
with God infection

Gone drunk
lies sunned
with skin thickening

Lush grass;
flies gaping

Two girls
slow kiss
in love

I don't know what you call
these kid clusters here

They hug each other
and hit each other:
blood rush economy

What are the affinities?

Air gets tight and
the heavens get iron beards

Bone fed sycamore studded
with party lights, shadows
waiting line of us, dulleyed

We're all about;
our built in dishonesty

hums as low-toned
as circulation

  1. Thanks, Red.

    I saw I'd missed a bit after your comment.

    Pigeon Park is the local name for the green that surrounds St Philip's Cathedral in the centre of Town. I'd toyed with another name but concluded that no other title would do.

    A serious question, deserving of a serious reckoning.

    It could be applied equally, in so many places, now.

  3. It is a serious question; more often than not asked from the other side of the glass. It's a bit nippy out here.
