Covent Garden piazza 2010

Suspended under the canopy
Drill hall commands echo and bounce
The rhythm of roar and shout
Exhilaration, an elixir
We watch, intently, from the crowd
It is a slow fall towards death.
In the high, vaulted arena
Where light falls, pigeons unfurl
And bright tables glamourise
I carry my melancholy heart
