SNAP NOISE


Three tiers of noise

Caught me from the side

                       
                        one from under the trailer
                        and on its hind
                        a carpet for the heels
                        as they crushed the madman’s legs
                        while he hung on to the side
                        of the long mirror-less lorry

                        the other just behind me
                        and beside Gibraltar Church
                        a woman who said
                        “i am a mother he surely has a mother”
                        then she cried but continued home

                        the third from the third floor
                        a Lebanese peeped and cried
                        “some relation of his will come
                        and claim insurance on the lorry”
                        with his eyes containing the container

So the lorry stopped
Just to give madness a ride
