The Cleaners



We do not send promotional literature
usually. Usually we turn up at any kerb
unsolicited. We have no licence
to operate in your area.
Unpermitted we rummage, haul away all
that is salvageable. You do not
always see us. You do not always
want to. When we are done rearranging
your excess you are secretly
pleased. Sometimes you see us and pretend
not to. We thrive on dung hills and skip piles
ignore EU regulations and local County Council bye-
laws. You could be deemed complicit
in our offence, your offence
too. Unprosecuted, uncontrolled, untraceable
we will return at any time to any kerb
