UPDATE FAILED

 


monday & theres no binmen yet
it makes me feel strange
none of the clatter & shouts

i miss the clatter & shouts

theres plenty of work vans tho 
a big white camper that looks lost 
an eight wheeler of toxic something
i cant tell what
with tethered hoses like outside innards

the strange duck opposite is lining up 
mobility aids in the street
for the rag & bone men again

more mobility aids ?
he did this all last week

an old man rests on our front wall
curved over like a crescent moon
hes going the wrong way for a paper

he was 8 stone 
at his RAF weigh in 1943
& hes 8 stone again

or so he says
thats ALL he says

hes dressed all over in beige
ready for another desert campaign

monday 
no binmen
only one bird 
no breeze to speak off

calling it
update failed
drawing the curtains
will check on it later
