Parenthesised

At the bus shelter

on Middle Swan

Road, parenthesised

by fig tree

branches,

the private school

girl – all hairspill,

chequered dress pleats

pressed –

leans towards

the youth

in orange

high-viz vest,

Rossi workboots

tightlaced, and

speeding cars

are silenced,

cease to exist: the

couple

are everything;

distilled

in

this

{captured}

moment, here

now

.
