left onto Whitechapel road

“left onto Whitechapel road”
have not we been that way
many a time before?
lets try another?

–
ok #iceboy
you are the younger
the wiser of us two
we will follow your path
lets record the route
see where it leads
–
kb I agree
I am happy to stride forth
on unknown streets
with you by my side
–
ok #iceboy
one point to note
did your Pops not say?
I have a habit of talking too much
my talk of words, mirror thoughts
which pop into my head
–
my thoughts arrive unbidden
did James explain?
until now my words
have hidden themselves away
keeping me in the dark
biding their time, to pop our & play
a bit like your pre-school play . . .
oh . . .  there they go again!
–
#iceboy as you are
with me for a day only
do you agree
we can title the walk
‘our day of appropriation’
your dad James would like this
as it is at the top
of his list of priorities
along with his outofhead
backtothebody experiences
–
kb you mean dads body will be here?
I know kb even better lets bring it back
to our bodies & other bodies we see on the way!
–
#iceboy you know it better than I
lets appropriate your dads thoughts
into our recordings of words & visuality
–
kb what fun!
also .. lets do as Dad would
lets add a little extra
try & find a wood
a common place
–

dad would like this place ahead
lets go in?
kb it is a Burial Ground
with trees & branches
we can wind our way through
dad said if we find such a place
we must be quiet if we play hide & seek
for this is but a resting place of history
where the branches
like life, stand within our grasp
–
your dad is very wise #iceboy
now what do i see?
i see the concrete blocks
they are houses
for old body bones
laying in peace for eternity
in their common ground
between city road & bunhillrow
–
the blocks
they remind me
of our individual blocks
of #blockchaindissentart
where I met your dad & Ash
in reimagined reality . . .
now here we are treading a new path
from our bodies we go
–
kb lets escape this place of rest
back onto the streets
–
#iceboy I agree
the sun is shining
the snow has settled
off we go
–
kb we are sure
there will be many more
sites to see
