[quote]clouds hang low,
passing through high earth,
wet air and smooth skinned
powder sighs painted grey;
immigrants put on
their best suits for church,
the virgin mary is still alive,
she's on drugs, handwriting
vigor into a landfill;
vandalising with soft smiles
and shelter early in the street;
spavined familiarity
through the nauseous
flick of a pop song,
smothered beneath
damp, igneous vapours;
cigarettes and searching strangers[/quote]
