THUD THUD THUD THUD THUD THUD

in the evening
the metronome
thud thud thud
repeats repeat repeats
across the
marsh marsh marsh

thud thud thud
thud thud thud
thud thud thud

well what is it ?
what is it ?
what the fug fug fug
could it be be be ?

thud thud thud
thud thud thud
thud thud thud

so mechanical
so regular
so big big big

we cant even guess

~

obviously
we look out the window
& see see see
nothing there

obviously
we open the front door
& it gets louder louder louder
& nothing more

thud thud thud
thud thud thud
thud thud thud

so we google & search
search search search
& find a twitter spat
in kent last week
about this noise noise noise

& its the port
the river port
making more port
with a pile driver

thud thud thud
thud thud thud
thud thud thud

fug fug fug
we say say say
