Reading The Slaves of Solitude ...



I'm reading The Slaves of Solitude -

If I close my eyes, then open them, I'm in a bitter snug -

I've bought a girl a Gin and French -

Flying bombs are falling on pinched streets - 

Light bulbs flicker in the lounge of boarding houses -

A man wearing a blazer dreams of a fascist wedding - 

The hearts of the drinkers are like withered flowers -
