Ghetto

by

absorp wicked substance -

droves of decadent drugs,

one fall to kill a young man.
Christiaan face

close eyes

smoky club, so soft,
so loving, so full of life.

need skull,

the waterfall of pleasure
drifting through twisted
barbed wire dreams of halcyon days

soft serpent rainbows
slipping carcass

swollen and angry Thames.
Walk invisible ghetto,
charred metal husks

motorcars and children

faces pale and blank.
pane of pain

enclose a thousand narcotic dreams
shattered multitude square fragments

refracting thin March sun, urban dream, poetic poverty.

weep still champagne,

yesterdays headfuck.

puking Aluminium

sound splits air.

city dreams replace.
Lorries thunder
cough diesel grime

billboard streets,

God love
dirty conurbation
surgical filth.
