Shopping Trolleys

 like a flock of sheep, graze 
across the field of the car 
park. Small groups and singles, 
feeding quietly, scattered randomly.


The proverbial solitary jumbuck 
lies on its side, its wheels 
hanging over the edge of 
the perimeter drain, almost

 
out of sight, clinging onto the 
herd by hugging the asphalt, 

waiting for a shepherd to rescue 
it and return it to the fold.
