Room 3028 Poem by Andrew Taylor
Bleak courtyard somewhere
the sky is blue
doors slam quietness
interrupted
satellite television
Empty bottle Veuve Clicquot
five glasses ice bucket in corridor
the smell of coffee
the pen has a logo
Curtain flows
with courtyard breeze
blackout curtains
blackout notions
of time

‘doors slam quietness’ and I can begin to smell the atmosphere portrayed.
