boggs - poor things lyrics
poor things moving from the bedroom to the kitchen
throughthe cold hallway. brief excursions from the bed,
she said,
‘i slept today. i didn’t dream. i slept today. i didn’t
dream.’
quater past, and from the ladder,
‘i..’ twilight on midnight and here again.
‘when after all, who now believes…’
‘when after all who now? hey-hey, i slept today, i
didn’t
dream, i heard cars p-ss by. the ordinary kept me in
bed.’
the telephone rings.
‘hey?’
‘hey’
outbursts. n-body.
‘no! i nevere knew!’ the chortle of cars as they p-ss
by.
‘pahleeeze let me go too? maybe we could…’
fingers make there way to… ‘hey-hey!’
she shuts her wide mouth and wonders,
‘why? fix myself or sometime or…’
‘try.’
the black olive of her eyes looks on a great gathering
of the
ordinary. windswept streets and curling leaves,
‘leaves less than to be desired.’
they curl between the nethers and…
‘shed your…’ straighten. swallow. stand.
‘somewhere i hear…’
‘hey-hey!’
the neighbores come through the wall.
the closing of the downstairs door.
