“WALKING HOME” 4 Sept 01

Every Sunday at around 8pm
I survey the waste of the past
time spent hypnotised by
sloth & television
and wonder where my time has gone

Every Monday at around 8am
I walk down rainsodden streets
to the right where nothing much happens,
to the left where nothing much changes
where people live & die

where people make lunch
put on shirts and ties
shoes and soothe
a screaming child
do whatever needs to be done
to stay alive
