A love in verse

Certain Nights

Still it haunts me that I went – 

That I must go again – 

To that woman with morals bent

As corkscrews who, to men,

Is fanciable flesh and naughty tongue – 

To me her siren song is sung


When I’ve platonic hopes to nurse – 

She lures me along

All innocent, then worse and worse

Things get – I know it’s wrong,

Yet she’s a feast of all delights

Who drives me crazy certain nights.

Needs Must

All through the years every now and then

I’ve made my lists and packed my bag

To leave old Brentford town again...

Riches

All still and dim the house has been

Shadowed against the furious sun

And I have missed my dearest one...
