Domino Danzig
People slowly old,
slowly taking over
your perspective.
Agonisingly arduous
movements,
slow
aches and pains, they’re wheezing.
Moans and stop, won’t know if
they’re waiting for your help
or they just need that pause to
resume pass on their own.
They are dominant landscape
in the neighbourhood,
for your house and your daily job too, part
of your trade,
slow part of your lifetime, everyone
is late
and also
all of that could have been far worse - as in
those other hoods with a
different
demographic
dominance.
