They were pilling and raving
Now scrimping
But not saving
Blair's Britain's
Gucci loafers
Hoofed Em
Right in the spuds.

When the smoke from the furnace
Gets more attention
Than the warmth it brings
How could you
Rely on
The glory
Of those
Past things
They go round the corner
And don't come back again.

We used to
Walk around out
Here,
Long past
Midnight,
High and drunk.

We'd meet other
People,
Creeping about
The city at night.

Drinking down
By the river,
Illuminated in
The orange
Glow
Of a street lamp.

I went
Bump
In the night.

I crawled around
With bloated
Night crawlers.

I basked in
The shadow
Of a pair of ravens
Holding stern
Council,
Over the
Dim of the
Din
On a cold
Restless night.

When your stacked up parts
Seem less than what
You thought you are
Move em around a bit
Step back
View it from afar
Or at least
As is reasonable
Without
Breaking a wall
Don't stand up
Too quickly
You might
Have a fall.

There's a dance
Dynamic
When you live
With people
Up and down
And maybe
Right and left
All around
A trade off
In noise
And smells
And habits and such
So many come and go
In this grand rabbit hutch.

If you are this
You can't do that
The rules are clear
As a matter of fact
If one of us
Stands over there
The line gets toed
With precise care
Don't talk to them
Or speak there of
For we are right
And they so wrong
If you long to stand
On the right side of history
Grasp your ankles
Accept the fistory!
