tried but not tested
against a chalk line
on the new ash black pavement
start here, it says
here feet pixelate
on newly laid asphalt
footprints stick
and soles pick grit
from tar
start here – humans
drag holes into the pristine surface
while
from the window I
watch a cat
pad stickily
from kerb to gatepost and
unexpectedly held by
clagged
tarry paws
miss the pounce to the stone-topped
wall
and scat-scrabble away under the hedge
