Songs Of The City. Mapping the inspirational landscape of Dundee. Wednesday, 2 July 2014. MARY SHELLEY ON BROUGHTY FERRY BEACH. MARY SHELLEY ON BROUGHTY FERRY BEACH. One small boat tugs the enormous corpse inshore. Towards waiting locals. A lad opens up its mouth. And wades inside, clutching a flensing tool. For blubber. Piece by hacked off piece. Men deconstruct the outcast zeppelin body,. Carting lumps back to beachfront cottages -. Sturdy food and good oil for the winter. Date: 1.07.14.

Songs Of The City. Mapping the inspirational landscape of Dundee. Thursday, 31 July 2014. JUTE MILL TURN OF THE CENTURY. TURN OF THE CENTURY. They stand crucified by loom ribs and spindles,. These hemp women made from shadow,. With their skull heads doubled over machines. That worked, but not for them. They present their misery unabashed,. Unwilling to hide it,. Unable to conjure, for a shutter second, smiles. In the foreground there is a youth. The nearest women are bending to his height).

Of youths and maidens, the close dip that was. Her lord, the sandstuck embers that perfumed. The dark she’s dreaming in, that sticky net,.

Songs Of The City: June 2014
http://songsofthecity.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Songs Of The City. Mapping the inspirational landscape of Dundee. Friday, 27 June 2014. DUNDEE (This plate has been removed for unknown reasons). The streets are waiting for a snow. Too close to the water,. Too muffled in the afterwarmth of jute,. The houses on Roseangle. Opt for miraculous frosts. And the feeling of space that comes. In the gleam of day. When you step outside for the milk. Or the morning post. And it seems as if a closeness in the mind. Had opened and flowered:. 56455030, -2.983750.
