EFC: Textures

Words: Tom Reed

In it for the textures.

Chip fork prongs.

Thumbed pound coins.

Gaps between the railings.

Farfalle for the foodbank.

Adidas Torsion.

A bobble for your hat.

The Tifo’s gone between the seats.

Blue tinted glasses, veils of silk.

It’ll take on water eventually.

It always does.
