The only poetry happening in these streets, despite the names, is the innate truth of an honest day's work for an honest day's pay for the tradespeople working here. Mind you, that could just be romantic claptrap to link the nature of the place with the theme of the roads. I'll buy in and say it's all true.




Just next to all that scrap, steel and concrete is this remnant of agriculture.
