We went across London to see Nation at the National Theatre.
We got off the tube at Embankment and walked across the river Thames
Past the Royal Festival Hall
Past the bright & new South Bank
Past the kids doing tricks
to the National Theatre by Dennis Lasdun
where material is king
and the boundaries of what is inside
and outside are not defined
and the threshold is managed by a local entrepeneur
The interior of the auditorium was as much a play as the play
after the play finished we made our way back home, life had not diminished outside, the skaters were skating
in their appropriated skate park which the authorities have now realised is a part of the architecture
back over the bridge past the busker
wearing his busking shoes
and playing his busking sax
under the gaze of the ever watching eye
down underground
onto the late train
home
but then there was Donald Judd....
