Apartments 21 Rolleston Street

The strange man says hello.
He has not done that before today,
so there is a certain warmth
to the weather, you will see.
Engines hum. Cars queue
in an endless cigarette.
Someone has defrosted their freezer
and thrown the great chunks
of ice on the lawn.
People lower their eyes
around 21 Rolleston
so as not to see the insides of another,
or indeed, so that their own insides
cannot be stolen, which the police
have warned us of before
in small leaflets left
in our letterboxes.
