Here are the six posters created by Leo Boyd to accompany a poem by Nathaniel McAuley for CNB15. Four are photographs taken in situ; two others are from Leo’s instagram.
A City-wide Initiative
for the [mass] Production
of Lemons
Instead,
the city plants
for lemons.
Big men wail hammers
parting the streets
in search of earth
seeds grow in
the cupped hands
of patient children
and shoot
from inside pockets
out of sleeves and collars.
Every hole in the wall
is over-packed
with knots of root.
Within the year
the luminescent
cache of fruit
is promised
to be vast enough
to displace night.
