Analysis of ABANDONED LIMOUSINE
UNWRAPPED WRAPPINGS
A DISCARDED BLUE LIMOUSINE
BALD TYRES
LEAKING GASOLINE
AN EMPTY GAS CYLINDER ATTACHED TO
A WARE HOUSE WALL
CONCRETE BLOCKED WINDOWS
UNLOCKED DOORS
BROKEN GAS LAMPS
A SHATTERED WINSCREEN
LOOSE PACKETS OF HEROIN ON THE BACK SEAT
THE DRIVER AND A PASSENGER SLUMPED INFRONT
NO MOVEMENT IN THEIR BREATH
IN THE BOOT A YOUNG GIRL
HER BODY TIED IN TAPE
BARELY ALIVE
A BULLET IN HER HEAD RESIDES SILENTLY
UNABLE TO SPEAK SHE NODS
KNOWING SHE IS LUCKY TO HAVE SURVIVED
