“SUNDAY MORNING” 1 Feb 99

Everything is normal: as it should be
there, the couple from No. 43
with grocery bags, looking forward
to whatever is on TV
a child plays on a bike
a father walks his dog
the removal van passes and
inside the newsagents
rickety old ladies choose broadsheet and tabloids
then there was an explosion:

the blue G. Reg Renault turned into light
and people turned into angels.
