All about the Gherkin
You look over
staircases of blue shield
windows and tube
light.
And scared hearts
beat in pin-splah-drop
silence, if this
conversation,
Maybe the last. A forest
inside you, with
summer flowers and
flimsy,
If sweaty dreams of
the other half that
is sleeping in transit
rotation,
Of the Earth, and all
changing relationships,
Except the one that
we have with our
window,
And a big delicious
ugly building.

the gherkin has a brother in barcelona...and both may look odd, but are marvelous by design, allowing so much light within the building unlike the usual designs we have to live with. i wish we had spaces designed to be like the kiasma museum in helsinki or the new tokyo tower city that is in the planning stage...and since you seem to know london, try and get into one of the wharf lofts, you'd be, like me, green with envy forever!
