NY

Look up to us

Richard Partridge

Look up to us.
The New York balcony.
A rectangle of roof, felt.
Architecture and buildings
fill every foot of the horizons.
Rusted metal table and chairs,
in bright colours,
dulled, worn matt with exposure.
Rain. Dark. Flat.
And all of the living and mechanical noise
we cannot see.
