Revitalise
my cityscape
stop saying rebirth about the place when
what you mean
is you are ripping us a new arse how
much more
of this indignity should
we have to take always
making us agree at each stage just
be a Visigoth a vandal
get the thing over with and done all
this internecine what-nottery
so bad for all the sandstone and the flouro paint soaks
in the sad
air drifts down along my street
we have ceased to make our gardens
self-conscious to be twee to be the we we were before tell us
again how good it’s going to be

"Write me a cheque". It's horrible to see.
