a game of shapes
black pole in a star field with white circle

night obscured with black oblong

following period of external turbulence
night is a big black square 

meanwhile - two Elizabethan lads stand in a long room
and a small collage - after Hans Arp perhaps

(a ring of text for texture only, on black with white crescent and circle)

glued over rubbish drawing 

bone cold out
flat grey with big wind

walking on small roads
blinkered and leaning into it

to depict the divisions of night

oblongs, circles, wedges, arches
layered up - a little game for 3am
