wander abaht atter a home
 as av no bairns ad Tek us in
 so the living hereabahts
 rush inside
 early doors 
 afore sunset
 lock doors
 pull down shades, 
 turn mirrors to walls

 do all to stop me seeing em
 for if I did
 I'd carry 'em off. 

 *** named a monkey
 after us, the lemur
 cos we big eyes
 are aht at neet
 and mek ghost noises

 so bairns bang *** lids
 howl like wolves
 joined by tarn dogs,
 to frit us away

 while nannans spin abaht, 
 splash boiling watta
 rahnd rooms with a wooden ladle .

 Am one dead al not find a home.

&nbsp;&nbsp; I'd carry 'em off.
