The writing and story telling is very inventive and the voice of the characters and their views up front. It’s more than just a good story.

That’s an interesting piece of writing and the notion of witnesses as being around us in many shapes is interesting.

Shut it down
close the door
on the word for a bus station
leave the door swinging
and the pigeon pecking
on damp concrete
and edit out the
‘sun rays’ and
replace it with
‘grey Anglican clouds’
so your
protagonist is
forever stuck waiting
for the tired coaches
whose wheels
you punctured
