You're lonely on the bridge Distressed by the inevitable You can’t stop looking for him

Yellow, are they lemons?  I cannot tell. Perhaps it was by accident, Bringing us here with those pictures in the frames and those words on the walls Clean and white and shiny, The only noise is industrial No birds nor mice to break the noise Charlotte St Cuthberts.

  4. The buildings tower over the treesBut nature still sneaks throughThe tarmac and brickAre over powered by greenWindows stretch forward, without meetingSmoke wisps away and pictures show the idealised peacethat may have never beenPathways lead to somewhere shielded by the treesAnd the ladybird looks unnatural on wooden stool The untouched landInterspersed with trucks.Laura St Cuthberts

  12. Bare tree branches pierce the blue skyDark clouds linger meaningless, watchingRain will come, but when?Will the suns arms dry it with their brightness once moreOr are they sleepy, like the lazy flag waving at the windAs smoke pours from a chimneyof a threatening brick buildingI don't know what goes on in therebut I’m not sure I want toEvie Talbot - Takapuna Grammar

  14. I sit close to the groundmy back is to the windowsthe black wall in front of mereflects the speeding streetthe hum of the buildingblends in with wheels on the roadI turn to watch the trafficthe sun bounces off a white Uteand a police car flashes past in checksI look up the ceilingthe wired lights shinewith metal grating against the concrete panelsit looks like a warehousewith a wall of windows and an industrial roofI cant see how this is a librarythere are photos of pre-war babiesand feathered Maori Chiefsbut books? None.Kate Thompson St Cuthberts

  15. When a small crack appearsyou don't carewhen it shatters you ask what happenedCan one be faceless when they can still see, speak and breathe?What would you miss most if you couldn't see?One lost his shoes, one lost his lifeShe burnt her lips when she kissed the sunI wonder if the mice do acrobatics when we turn our backsIf i believed that red was blue would you have the heart to tell me the truthKatherine Wood - St Cuthberts
