I didn't know you were a prostitute
but all your strange responses
made me track you down
I can't afford you to escort me

High on the smell of blood and gunsmoke
she was in no mood to apologise
for collateral damage

I will write about your love
but this is not the moment of love.
Love is currently impossible.

I told the barber
I was writing poems
He nearly cut my ear off

The train slows down
to admire the view
Don't tell Head Office
