..a few new, but most of the same cats
new tunes, a soundtrack to the same chats
about this being the last one
because the last one really was a harsh one
and we’re past done.

Bracken Close
"This one is for my fellow Bracken Close dwellers, rocking old borrowed sweaters cos we came unprepared for the cold weather, but we made it 'Home'. ".
.....A follow on to my last piece 'Borokiri', named after the street I moved to when we first came to Inglan'

Borokiri
...before jumpers for goals, 'monkey post' was how we mastered the touch/ re-enacting Atalanta heroics underneath a sun burning hot/ like..Amokachi ...to Kanu... feint, drop the shoulder, then shot / post and in, shirt gone, run off being chased up the block...
...a snapshot of childhood dedicated to Borokiri, my old neighbourhood in Port Harcourt, Nigeria.

for Lolia
..a poem for my little lady.
*background music is a short looped sample of 'Your Daddy Loves You' by Gil Scott-Heron / Brian Jackson which inspired this (well his version from the Real Eyes album which is a bit more upbeat)

Dave
..making my way through the hordes of people, I see a face in the crowd
as it slaloms through the blur of bodies I try to trace it
tracking those faintly familiar features as it flashes through the sea of faces
I quickly filter through past encounters, people and places, tryna place it
a matter of seconds before the moment's gone
..where do I know him from?
....Dave?
