PLEASE STOP SHOUTING ACROSS THE ROOM:

Everybody doesn’t need to know what you’re thinking,
Honest

(K)

I’VE LIVED IN, I’VE LIVED OUT:

I’ve lived five minutes away from here,
I’ve lived in the centre of everything I thought I wanted,
Now I’m living in a place I swore I’d never come back to,
I thought I would go mad with boredom,
But I didn’t

(K)

I DON’T WANT TO SEE ANOTHER PICTURE OF YOUR FEET:

Another empty street at night,
Show me something great,
Something that feels like you care,
What do you love?

(K)

HOW BIG A HOLE ARE YOU FILLING?:

Have you got everything you need?
You still want more

(K)

ON THE PACKAGE THERE’S A USE-BY DATE:

But you can’t always go by that can you?
Do you?
Do you throw it away,
Even though it’s edible?

(K)

STANDING THERE:

Staring at me,
I’m not who you think

(K)

HOW DO YOU PAY THE RENT?:

How do you get from A-B?
Who’s phone is ringing when it should be silent?
How long have I got?
How much time do you need?

(K)

WHO’S THAT WEARING CUFF-LINKS?:

Who’s rusted frog is leaping?
Who’s table for one is waiting?
Who’s clock is ticking?
Who’s that hiding?
(Running away),
Who’s that listening?
(Never been heard),
Who gave you your name?
Where are they now?

(K)

UNDER THE GLOSS:

No sanitised,
Colour boosted,
Text corrected,
Airbrushed,
Urban landscape,
This is the place I keep to myself,
Still a kid,
A crow,
A nest,
And you can’t see me

(K)

A COFFEE TABLE BOOK:

I’ve photographed you,
Documented you,
Collected you,
And published you
