When all night the wind fondles tin
while the radio crackles until it pops
then locks a wavelength, never leaving home
& you think, look how we’ve dropped into a fold
the fabric so crumpled, we’ve settled in
set up wobbly chairs, created a sort of order
as every Saturday: out on the town.
And what if it’s decided to take an iron to it?
shake what’s loose cut the lines...
