fallout: new shenton | Shenton Way

By and | 31 October 2020

i.

in the new city
a wandering river of
delivery bikes
throng canals of retail shops
drained of posh automobiles

ii.

are there angels
among the living
the air is thick
with the expensive smell
of sanitisers
let us raise our hands
lower our masks
open palms open hearts
all praise and glory
to the unclaimed

iii.

there is no comfort
in the wandering
only the waiting
find purpose
in the destination
