Street walkers dream

[something beautiful is burning low
beneath my shivering hands
unconscious, confused,
totally perplexed]


Go home,
darling,
go home


Their steps are deadly pale,
lights are broken and voices
- is promises of secrecy,
sickening.
As filthy grey shades from the street lamps.


Their eyes are flickering
as loathsome humanity
breathe in their last
- savageness.
The snow is already dead on bituminous pitch streets.


Come home,
darling,
come home.
