Carpark (May)

Down here at eye level twentieth century’s Braque hatchings end. Sunrise enlightens grease slicks and loiterers’ solo slop Klee lettering. Sketch plans incorporate carparks between parks and Mondrian polychrome buildings. Hard squares, bold crosses, long lines for miles mock Malevich. Guston guzzlers maraud the territory anxious intent for vacant spaces. Midday is stop and start May Sales golden as Gascoigne. Vehicles’ drifts and detours delineate Steinberg permanent parallel swerves, forever. Layers of blinkers and door-mirrors queue towards Rauschenberg exit ramps. Nightfall clouds the lines between Pollock frenzy and Rothko melancholy. Midnight carparks borrow moonlight edgings, metallic scratches in Tàpies etchings.
