A love in verse

Bus 391

Hello, my light! The 391 is hurrying,

The trees whizz by the window and the air

(Conditioned) is quite cool – all’s well, no worrying

About our being apart – I’ll soon be there.

Happy I am! You’re extraordinarily lovely,

The whole of you’s a sweet, comely delight.

Now by the bus stop I tell the stars above me

Their beauty’s bettered, and I thread the night 

In trains and buses urging them to fly

Through star – and streetlight – I must kiss or die!

Memories

You beside me on the balcony

The dark Aegean sea at dawn

And ouzo and water and cigarettes...

Oscar

Your bum is better than Venus’s arse

I dwell upon it constantly

Two rounded hillocks of real class...
