Overwhelm

On gasoline grey, gun grey, battleship
Grey, steel grey, aluminium, smog,
Heat-haze grey, newsprint finger-
Smudge, storm cloud, dire meat
Grey, corpse grey, English grey,
Pencil lead, cigarette ash, Maunday
Grey, hymnal, font, stone, starched and
Grey, stiff and grey, fixed and grey,
Frown and grey and cough and
Grey and whine and whimper and shriek
And grey and twilight grey,
Evening grey, noon grey, midnight grey,
TV crackle, static, radio static,
Cup of Tea,
Slippers
