February 4 Illegal meat on most UK High Streets, official says
Diego Cortez dances in front of the door, shop is closed, the sign says siesta 12 – 2 and although this is Nottingham England, a locked door is still a locked door. He shuffles his feet back and forth, arms cutting the air into abstract angular shapes, his converse perverse with meaty residue, no more street life needed. Presently the door opens, a boy-man sits in on a stool and gives him a brief once over. How lucky! In the back room he sees a small man dancing with a taller girl, she holds her hand to her head now and again and looks downwards in faux embarrassment, her tight black dress swirls around her feet as they look quite a team Outside no more, the safety of linoleum and carpet under foot, no ooze nor tenderised pavements Diego pirouettes into sleep and waits for the summer to come.
