Weary bones
Objectified – instant
Mutual gratification

These photos were taken in the Chinatown Mall, Glasgow.
Four accompanying haiku document my early sexual experiences.

Fifty pence per play
Clammy hands on warm joysticks
While button flicking

Feeling the pressure
Friends watching over shoulder
Only one life left

 

Hammering controls
A new challenger enters
Knock out! – play again?

The countdown begins
Insert coins to continue
Lost it –  GAME OVER

E.U. exit plan
is dystopian future  –
you can smoke in pubs

no more immigrants
close down the borders – nation
of jobless racists

Britain votes to leave
manufacturing is dead
oil is now worthless
