Invisible Town, Invisible Mother, Invisible Father

An invisible mother walks
down an invisible street
searches for invisible sons
and daughters.

An invisible father looks on.

Poor & Scavengers live in metal
skips on unwanted, superfluous items,
cupboards, sofas, tables, chairs, books
second mouth food & drink.

An invisible future is lived day by day.
An imagined past could be real
as morsels of food found.
An invisible life in the moment.
