The need for speed _

Chilled mid-winter crisp night air cascades in a
moonlit fogged waterfall off the tablelands.
Blokes, five in a row, grey on grey, walk slated
mutta slow, so slow they risk catwalks backward.

Thempla J walk abbott on shields staccato
beat, pockets full of hands, hoodies full of heads.
Culture trapped on such a night doesn’t make much
sense, such is the need for girlfriends with swift feet.
