(Give me a London girl every time…) *- I want to push my hands into your hips and smack you back to front against the wall, bunching your **** little skirt in my fingers, unclipping those fifties plastic beauties that cling to your thighs and I want you to be a right proper girl for me, a right proper girl -* (…I’m gonna find one, I’ve made up my mind…) So she got her phone out and Smiled her Madonna-Gap smile, Fine lines floundering Like speech marks Either side of her mouth. So romantic! A girl with a face of Punctuation! ***** pennies, she said, Your eyes are ***** ******* Pennies* She would finger the holes In my tatterdemalion Charity coats, And my shop-bought medals. She would jab her fingers Against each point Of the Burma Star, Spookily, As though it were a Pentagram. She’s a washboard, Her ******* are thumb-tacks In a cosmetic shade of Gold, With a crucifix stamped Like a dagger glyph Right between them, like a silver sneer, on her precious metal chest. *- I want to take your photo - I want you in Pippi Longstockings And to angle you just so, my no-knickered **** with her goosebumps on show -* I’ll never forgot when she told me She owned a leopard-skin Pill-box hat , And I said * “You’d have to be dead Not to fancy that…”* I’m not sure how aware she is though, Of how many people Tongue- to- the -floor want her. She plays bored on purpose! I’ve watched beautiful boys Go to pieces Trying to entertain her With a curly straw. She’s a real cheekbone feline, And around her pupils Rages a ring of jagged orange, Like a jester’s ruff. And I think of all this, Whilst she stands there, Moving from toe to toe In her zig-zag heels, And wooden bracelets, And her little lycra Landmine that Shop assistants sell To girls like her. And then she clocks me. and she doesn’t say a thing - she just swims smilingly over Through a parted gaggle, Letting me grab her Like I mean it, Spanning her waist with my Hands like A corset - And the fairylights Are just smudges Across her sequins, And her mottled shoulders are Ten shades Of mostly white.
