Untitled - 30/9/05
Late is the hour of this reckoning,
Night - we sang of the muse that cheers,
To forget, briefly, the dreams we had of tomorrow
Just for the night.
We sang accappella,
A song of my distant past,
Me trying to untie the knot that is my heart,
Them to ode the muse of their dreams.
Morning comes to some surprise,
The tamil beats and raucous rhythm
Of the tabla and drum
Mixed with the feng-tau chinese american reject
That made me laugh at their unoriginality.
I crawled home - passing uniformed cars,
That neither inspired nor wound me,
The foul whisky-tea will last till morning
Like the knot;
It's tighter than I thought.
