Dundas Square
Screens flicker:
a smile & its teeth;
clothing;
clothing;
SALE –
the
whitewashed pavement;
a
progress of bodies
through
backlit
smoke.
King Palace
In
echo of the road’s curve,
the
hollowed face of an apartment:
balconies in slanting rows,
concrete and
chicken
wire.
Further:
a
menu printed on a wall,
plated
curries framed
in
yellow.
The
towering sign
rising
from a planter
choked
w/
coffee cups,
plastic bottles,
weeds.
Highway
Asphalt;
lamp
posts;
flowers
on a cross.
A
woman’s hands,
white-knuckled.
Traffic.
