Donations are essential to keep Write Out Loud going    

one of my turns

Dazzling watercolour set

Abandoned through

 disillusionment

Pours gently and quietly

Into festering open sewer

 

Painter trampled underfoot

By monochrome clamour

Hurtling towards

Nine fifteen to Euston

 

Rotting leaves

Fall like verdigris tears

As linoleum factory

Shits out endless filth

To enable people

To walk more comfortably

On kitchen floor

 

Starving poet

Unable to buy wife chocolate bar

While banker eats muffin

In adjacent vehicle

 

Single dead child

Enables humanity

To finally discuss

Whether we should allow

Torment and misery

 

E-Book manufacturer

Releases fragrance

Enabling E-Book

To smell just like

Real-Book

 

Is it just me?

Unusual style this - social commentary in a strangely detached delivery.

And no, it's not just you.

(Is that true about the e-book?!)
