Oliver Ackland: Round Up. Make Nice

3 December 2008

Shuffle and stop. Dust to the sun, shakes, lusts for the moon, grinning, takes off. Boy watches closely, mad eyes wide, and sharp and tongue Boots move at a rumble of white, holding hands with proud thumb prince under nowhere waltz panic. Grind their teeth, Loose their feet and Shout. Slow lace choir smoke oils. The machines that blur day and night swing almighty heavy orange hands. Light of heart friends trade damaged rope, throw scotch bottle bookends. Tireless light bulbs, painted glue stories.
