jerry-built –
twitchy, transgressive,
serotonin-dip
weeks doing normal blokey things
fork-lifting hours onto days
growing retro –
like apricots
in a 1950s dish spooned from a tin
with condensed milk
new and remembered from flower-bordered-lawns –
taste and texture
an edgy aesthetic
the way red sings with pink.
