london roses - ghizela rowe - willa sibert cather lyrics
“rowses, rowses! penny a bunch!” they tell you++
slattern girls in trafalgar, eager to sell you
roses, roses, red in the kensington sun
holland road, high street, bayswater, see you and smell you++
roses of london town, red till the summer is done
roses, roses, locust and lilac, perfuming
west end, east end, wondrously budding and blooming
out of the black earth, rubbed in a million hands
foot+trod, sweat+sour over and under, entombing
highways of darkness, deep gutted with iron bands
“rowses, rowses! penny a bunch!” they tell you
ruddy blooms of corruption, see you and smell you
born of stale earth, fallowed with squalor and tears++
north shire, south shire, none are like these, i tell you
roses of london perfumed with a thousand years
