Poetry

Departures and Arrivals

Geoff Page

The vestiges of Vladimir
are growing harder to detect:
bad PAs, appalling plumbing,
boring buildings you suspect

must once have housed the local Stasi,
apartment blocks in slow decay.
The Age of Dreariness is gone.
The Age of Greed’s arrived to stay.

Geoff Page
