FLIP CHART




FLIP CHART

I saw you  through the window.
Emphasising. Highlighting bullets
to fire back at elsewhere desks.
Out here the sun is setting.
Rooks gather in the high branches.
Making plans.

LOCATION




Location

I want this crisp.
A clear evocation of cars
black enough to defy light
and the waxless amalgamation
of snow and gravel
under virgin tyres.

I want to show you two men.
Outlines sharply tailored
against the thin air ;
cold breath embracing
in the space between them.

Perhaps they are trading secrets,
dividing territory ,ending wars ;
perhaps they just want to know
why they are here on this page ,
in your mind in the middle of this
martini clean sweat free winter.
