PUSH TODAY





englands famous dishwater skies 
cling 
to stubborn roofs repeating tiles
and 
to blocked forgotten relic chimneys
and 
to superseded satellite dishes still snobbish
and 
to spindly self conscious tv antennas open metal ribs
and 
theres 
no shadow or definition and no depth or drama
and
almost almost almost no time

somehow we are stuck in dawns disappointing grey forever
and 
its silent fallout of thin endless gutless rain

thats 21C toxic !

and 
peels away the paint from the parked big-arse cars 

and 
all the memories of other gone and nowhere days
must queue and wait and twiddle their useless thumbs
because
today the world wont move at all
no
matter
how
hard
you 
live it and push

 
charing cross bridge, overcast weather, claude monet
