Nightfall in Sorrento

Nightfall in Sorrento

Performance poem by Trev Teasdel July 2007

Sorrento -

The Communion of the urban puzzle

Where elegance is attitude

The fashion club of the urban groove

eco-driven

citizens.

In slender tones

of mobile silence

Nocturnal spiders

In basement bars

Live the lust

Of the selfish-gene

In Sorrento

.

Spin-doctored money blenders

Nightfall Sorrento- with guitar by Trev

Unknown

With hidden agendas

Crammed with fruit

In the cave of clones

Lie low in Sorrento

In the wah wah cadence

Of  Sorrento radiance,

re-mortgaged  estate Agents

with Vintage Bentleys

sway in the breeze

to nightfall’s synthful,

sassy jazz

Glow-worm leprechauns

In dust-down

Denim delights

Ageless

And jazz-hot.

Hide behind enemy-lines

In Sorrento.

Nightfall in sorrento

The civil disobedience

Of  a New Era

The world in one city

Refuelled and  

air-cooled -

Adidas pre-Raphaelites

On a full-english

cutting edge

Predicting a riot in

The chic -chill-out

Of a power-pop city.

The Revlon Accurist

With pipe smoking planes

In his own back yard

Sails his Skintight riverboat

In the shimmering waters of Sorrento

.

Escaping

The chaos of

A goose-pimpled

Colditz

With his third wife

escape plan

from the regional assembly

Of the Cantebury tales

Lost in Sorrento .

Midsummer night Dream-time

Astro-bars in Sorrento

Robert Frost fashion-brands

Follow the universe less travelled by

.

She was a trainee with a code name

Sleeping with the saints in Sorrento

Dark textured

With age defining make-up

The full

Glamour and scandal

On DVD

Eagerly awaited

The king of contenders

Hot toasted and out to sea

On another public art project.

Dizzy in the city with

Calvin Klein moth-repellent

Paying lip-service to high drama

In the urban puzzle

She’s like art in unexpected places

Soft-spoken

Sky diving

Sun-fresh

Sensitive

Sexy, suave

Stealing the show

On the soft silken routes of Sorrento

On the soft silken routes of  Sorrento.
