Hotel Room
every night the world from a different point of view
the plumbing diverse
smiles identical
Respect is purchased
in a community of strangers
How Are You Today Sir?
we take meagre possessions
from suit cases
without suits
spread them around
out of territoriality
like dogs pissing boundaries
for just one night
the space is Ours
Home
a tiny piece planted
in london/rome/paris
see the photo? this was Our room
(thousands have slept there since)
i forget the number…
mini soap
mini shampoo
mini bar.
miniworld.
