There is thick dust at the big black gate,
sheeted metal pulled together, cold and silent,
locked.
Dust, gathered in a ball,
mixed with long grey hair,
an empty sachet of chewing tobacco.
It all flies a bit this side, then that,
each time a vehicle whizzes by.
A big thick red stain runs long,
dried into the concrete by the sun,
ugly, tomato sauce that someone stepped on.
