Our Heart Is Here

This is from Brixton where the local people are currently fighting to save the arches. Where at the weekend a young man old boy dressed all in black smashed the window of a Foxtons. I condone this action.
This is from Brixton where the local people are currently fighting to save the arches. Where at the weekend a young man old boy dressed all in black smashed the window of a Foxtons. I condone this action. This post was written following seeing Carmen Disruption.

The train tracks are singing

The train tracks are singing to me
I have never heard them sing like this

I put my headphones in
I put my head phones in with nothing playing which is the closest I get to this city
I leave the theatre and
I put my headphones in with nothing playing and the streets look like they’re lit by par cans and fresnels
An old man whose beard furrows into his hat sings as he passes me and it sounds French or Italian.
A sign in a shop window lettered like ‘keep calm’ reads ‘love is only mad-‘ but I can’t read the rest of the message
Petals of blossom filter down through the air like sunlight and confetti

I have my headphones in with nothing playing and I listen to the city. This city that never feels like a place I would be, I feel small and successful. A man sat on the floor with a tin in front of him reads a book through gloveless fingers

The eyes of a young man or old boy linger on me, brown eyes and corn rows I glance behind me and he turns and follows.

He’s following me along the street, I see it in the reflection of the Wetherspoons and another young man old boy glances at me then talks to the friend and I hear him say ‘she had headphones in’ as I walk on

It is only at Warren Street I realise they probably wanted me to buy them some beer at Budgens.

I wonder if I would have done,
I feel bad for feeling threatened by them. I feel like If I hadn’t have been wearing headphones and they had asked I wouldn’t have known what to do and probably would have done something terrible like make them promise that they’d do something to make up for getting drunk tonight, like call their grandmothers, or read a book I could recommend them.

Or go to the theatre. I could buy them a ticket to go see the play I just saw. I would explain to them who Kate Tempest is and how I feel now like I did after I saw her raise her voice with poetry of broken hearts and broken people like myths and heroes. ‘It’s mostly about mobile phones, and cities’, I would say, ‘and how capitalism is on the floor, bleeding and we are black, black, black with its blood’.

And they would let me buy them the beer and give me fake email addresses to send the ticket references to.

It takes me to Pimlico to finish the thought of what I would do about a thing that never happened.
I’ve been trying to remember who described contemporary technology in the city as cultivating a new ‘alone together’.
I think it was maybe Graeme Miller, but if it wasn’t, if I start by looking there, I think that’s the way I’ll remember where to find it

I think “I’ll look it up on my phone when I get to Brixton”.

  19. Another sweltering night here, the kind where the air
    itself feels like it’s suffocating you. I found myself
    logged into casino again. It’s usually my after-dark refuge when the heat finally subsides.

    Honestly, lately, the wins have been few and far between. My balance is looking precariously small, and I’m starting to sweat more about
    the wife finding out than the actual games. She’s been giving me that look, you know?

    My so-called ‘friend” – the one who’s always sticking close, practically looking over
    my shoulder – he’s always on here too. And the infuriating thing?
    He’s constantly hitting it big. Slots like slot_game_1 and slot_game_2, even that
    crazy aviator_game where the plane takes your money and runs.

    He even brags about his wins on slot_game_3 and slot_game_4.

    It’s like this place is has a soft spot for him.
    Makes you wonder, doesn’t it? Especially with the way he looks at my wife when she’s not looking.
    Makes a man suspicious, this heat does.

    Despite all that, and maybe it’s just addiction, I still find myself
    drawn to favorite_slot_game. There’s something about those
    sugary treats that keeps me clicking, even when the
    numbers aren’t falling my way.

    Maybe tonight will be different. Maybe the desert gods will finally throw me
    a bone. Or maybe my wife will just throw me out. Either way, here I am,
    spinning again at casino.

    Pros:
    Available 24/7 (perfect for my nocturnal habits)
    Wide variety of games (even if some seem to favor certain people)
    They do have favorite_slot_game, which I genuinely enjoy

    Cons:
    My personal luck here has been awful recently
    Seeing him win constantly is enough to make you quit
    Starting to seriously impact my real-life budget and relationships

    Overall: Divided. It’s a simple method to pass the sweltering nights, but
    my recent experiences and observations are making
    me seriously question if it’s worth the risk. Especially with everything else going on.

  20. Hey there excellent blog! Does running a blog similar
    to this require a lot of work? I have absolutely no knowledge
