A journey taken on a darkening afternoon through the streets of Paisley and Glasgow in photographs and poems. Individuals emerge from the crowd, themes repeat; music and sound unite disparate images so the people come alive. The poems observe with tough love and an unsentimental eye, but you can hear unexpected tenderness and harmony throughout the confusion.
