Green House
Green House, Preston South |
I spent my later childhood living next to a house like this. The owner I was told was in an asylum. One day I peered through the front window heavy lace curtains. I could see a room in disarray, the unmade bed strewn with pill bottles and multi coloured pills. The bed stayed this way for years. No one ever came.
Local Walk
Found marks and objects lately in Melbourne.
Borders, chimney, Prahran. |
Shop wall, Prahran. |
Cross the Line, Preston. |
Found shoe, Preston. |
I’m not down, by The Clash
'I've been beat up, I've been thrown out
But I'm not down, I'm not down
I've been shown up, but I've grown up
And I'm not down, I'm not down...'
Local Walk
If you see me walking down the street
And I start to cry each time we meet
Walk on by, walk on by
Make believe
that you don't see the tears
Just let me grieve
in private 'cause each time I see you
I break down and cry
And walk on by (don't stop)
And walk on by (don't stop)
And walk on by
Dionne Warwick, Walk on by, 1964. Lyrics by Hal David.

Local Walk
If you see your brother standing by the road
With a heavy load from the seeds he's sowed...
You got to try a little kindness
Yes show a little kindness...
Then you'll overlook the blindness
Of narrow-minded people on the narrow-minded streets
Glen Campbell, Try A Little Kindness, 1970.
