The Mill
musty varnish
dusty timber
loud, imagined noise
whispers in the gallery
footsteps on the stairs
hot and steamy
packed together pungent
with the stench of sweat
hazardous machinery
kids with missing limbs
carding brittle cotton
fluffy twistings
soft as cloud
dust and fibre
in the lungs - consumption
a beating
from the overseer
constant work: exhaustion
derelict mills
all covered with graffiti
Collaborative verses composed by: Rafiq, Ismail, Arif, Roshan, Natyra, Jes, Lucy, Rachel, Megan, Natalie, Claire, Catherine, Ruth, Amy & Carla.
