Sounds of Spaces and Places – Week ending 29th January 2012 CE

I

Piercing cry
high in the sky…

                                    Gone

Flecks of crimson,
cloud smears.

Chill air
cups the face.

II

Low growl of wind
worries the bins
Lids yapping
like pack dogs.

III

Over there,
fingers,
da dah dah dat dat
dat dah dah DA
earphone fizz, foaming
through the carriage,
Billy Idol’s White Wedding.
