Her backpack has a picture of a poodle on it and a logo which reads, Radley,
it could be a doggie bag.

Waking up and going under
the wonder of a modern age,

Rebellion on the streets!
I turn the page and scan
the horoscopes.

Taurus
says
Love is in the air along with billions
of microbes, keep your mouth shut.

Crowded,
well it would be at five thirty three,
people sleepwalking to work
shadows stalking the daylight
talking of midnight in
Kyoto.

I don't think DRYJPN is a real word
even if it's as super as it says on the
jacket.

Strange times that we live in
and it's no wonder to me that
people give in
and bow before the winds of
change.

But
and but gets in at last,
well
past its sell by
but
it'll do.
