Shallow morning creeps up lawns, falls round corners and stalls, breathes a sigh of rising vapour. The rear windscreen tries its best to forget the things we etched with freezing fingers in the dark – a wreath to lead this procession through the sleepy streets, dragged past the blocks by a fast dashboard clock. That our collected wist could summon from the mist some wrong turn that wasn’t there before. Perfectly positioned cranes brazenly repeat the claim that it’s not their jurisdiction to lift the frontages away / provide horizons that scroll away like lists of things to do today. Let the dented grille keep growling at some place it’s never been. Select the next cassette to get chewed up by the machine. Or gather up the paper cups, crushed from clutching on too tight, lest we feign left but swerve right.
