23 April

Day 23 (2)

Off prompt - inspired by endless photos of 'Liverpool in Black and White'

Liverpool in Black and White

They keep demolishing and smashing Liverpool

Again again

In black and white 

And it seems that I was born nowhere

And lived nowhere

My grandmother

Might say this again and again

God ! Winston and Duke and Palmerston and hope

All done

Cracked window, what's your purpose?

Fainting house, what's your purpose?

On your knees and other buildings collapsing too

Hysteria,  Derelict house

Who lives in you like a crab in its hermit shell?

Release to me my people from the photographs

My Grandmother with her white eyelashes

all the brother ans the sisters -

charlie john sidney ellis annie may edie flo

all done

Black white photo, memorabilia, what's your purpose?
