Dirty Smoke

by 

steve coel



where have all the people gone?


urban walking, street talking...dialling into what exactly?

some kind of vibe and as with any vibe you get good ones and you 

get bad ones.


too many loners stand by walls and on street corners.

so where have all the people gone when you’re still surrounded by 

life?


there is both a natural and man-made silence. sounds that climax 

and bounce around boundaries we place inside our communities.

machine and tool, cloth and flesh, shade and light.

suspicion etched into the shapes we make as we move around.


you see maybe 2 or 3 sleeping bags every day.

grey tracksuits, old trainers, cheap smart haircuts, green skin.


smell the pizza, dirty smoke, diesel.

it ain’t anger, it really isn’t.

it’s some kind of passive thing that’s going on here; roll 

over, walk on by, eyes to the floor people.. eyes to the floor.

but you know deep down, deep down, people are burning up.

life’s too short.

because the thing is; honesty and truth don’t always go together.
