Big/Beautiful

Saturday Evening, again in the first half.
The last night underway, I understand the piano from the inside.
The positive things, the atmosphere, the violin concerto
Sign up, a suprise to you. Forty years.

Old technology, a mountain top
Outmoded, dispensed water
The tropical relic and the radio

From these wooden huts
They planned revolution
Studio, station music and politics

Pulsing the steering wheel
The hole in the ground
In a series of shacks
Analogue gizmos
Enthusiast

Reverse Archeology
Climbing up to see the past
Naked Mental snapshots
The ether, younger
Island poised
Population, for how long?

Stasis, vestiges alongside the Americana
Agricultural van
Tools of Revolution
Typewriter
History will absolve me
History wil absolve me
around a television

No, it was his first appearance
The only visitor
Yet more examples of tech
More typewriters
Large windows, set on a desk
A tool at rest

Cultural connection
Big and beautiful
Throwing away
Outdated marketing drives

Material culture, unique
Connecting last year
Silver major advances

Look out of a window
What works for us
Contemplate change
Strict practice

Eight days without
The ancient works
The roads, cars
The two carriage train

A fighter plane
over centuries
endused a walk out of the village
no signal
Transitional


For Sale, fading sign
Lumps of concrete
Night market
Beside the war memorial

Village notice boards
Conviviality online
Understandable rare pause
Shocked imposition

Slow scratch as electronic data
On the afternoon
The old was welcome
Pay per view retro
Implausible
The plane

The old ways
When I lived
One thing,
The death
No translation
A vibration
summoning the city

access of bells and broadband
Happen upon it
Accomodating
Short, imagined
Clues are there
Brass crank
League of variants
Close up picnic

19th century
Sleek and small
occasional irregularities
prehistorians
Biggest window the best window
three analogue telephones
Spark a diplomatic incident

Dubbed into Russian
Ponder, academics
A start,
Relics saved from the trash
Cache and alure
What is collectable
Ambivalent ideal
OLD REGIME
THE SHAPE OF THINGS
NOT ENOUGH BOOKS
LITERACY RATE
THE IMPACT
THE DEBATE
