Jeffree Skewes - Streets Like Ours







In the middle of your palm
you can read or hear
by chance a little scene

radio lights blink
act like us

this morning's shock jock
spews snafu into the air
peeps are on the street

roll someone
Instagram lies

home alone
they don't know
planets align 

sometimes
there's no rhyme 

same for everyone 
must be in the water
this season's posts

crazy uncle stares 
streets from here

all look the same
when rain begins to floods
our little screen

in our hands








Streets like ours - upcycled phone, plastic tray, rose petals /  free verse / JS
