living in the sun, smell & you will find
two legs in front & two behind
breathing through the nose
it’s just a crust of bread you’re crawling over
a perfect evening that’s grey & green
the colour of gloat, it knows it is
so fabulous it looks like
a boat i want to get in
i want to get in
i want to get in
i want to get in
the waiters watch the boulevard
from every window ledge of the hotel
cos men cost money
now in her prime she wanders by
a hooded sack, a chin & nose
head bowed & hobbling to
wherever it is she goes after curfew
on the steps to the underground
the new sub-human choir
so cool they’re animals
how fascinating
i want to get in
i want to get in
i want to get in
standing on the corner at the station
five buskers singing like angels
& i want to…
