Sun dark on darker streets.
|
It's violent times for weary feet:
|
Carjackers and bullet showers,
|
A yellow sign,
|
Too many fools in power.
|
But see - I will be gone by morning.
|
My dear friend, I lost a fight
|
Forget me. I wash hands in your grey slowing night.
|
|
Coming down from darkened heights.
|
I taste the Thames with my cycle lights.
|
By Saint Paul's, by Big Ben.
|
By God's name, I repent.
|
But see - I will be gone by morning.
|
My dear London, goodnight.
|
Forget me, I wash my myself in your grey river light.
