Scary place

A mean wind wanders
Hackles on puddles rise
No windows left to smash

Play-fortresses of brick and bric-a-brac
Cracks deepen, the rats crawl
Roses of mould grow from ceiling to wall
Into air too poor to rob

Condemned to stand
The kestrel whimpers on a crazy hob
Smokes on one elbow
Lies late since he has lost his job
Old mattresses puff briefly

The man lies late since he had lost his job
