Gift

Tomorrow morning, an hour before sunrise, climb up somewhere high (a skyscraper, a hill, a crane, whatever) and look East. I have a present for you.

Lola

Jeremy - sorry, I know you're a little crazy but you mean well. I know I should take you more seriously. Let me know if you need a hand. Think you might find this 'ironic' (is that the right word?). Promise I'm not trying to kill you!

Luca - new guy, let's just say that Lola says 'welcome'. You'll get used to it.

Oscar - I know you'll be frowning but deep deep down you're enjoying it - right? Promise I won't tell!

Faith - bet you miss it sometimes. If you squint a bit you can pretend it's the real thing.

Tom - you'll like this for entirely the wrong reason; no, you will love this!

Magpie - something beautiful and scary for you - what's new?

Far from you, across the city
I felt the heat of your burning sun
And wondered, like so much to do with us
What if it was real?
