Wolumla Dairy bay window its rusted corrugated iron roof

its rusted corrugated iron roof edged by a dead tree leaning against the wall

throws a column of light across the floor

A black cable trails across the debris-strewn floor toward a bright doorway

with paint chips and debris across the floor and light falling through a line of open doorways

Conveyor belts
