where the smaller people go.
we were guided by the lights of Ilfracombe.
check-mate and foe as one
we have shielded oh too many times
loves odour through the language of a cat.
nine times each we have slain loves stocks and shares.
our kingdom was our own, it was lush
it was a blood-rush high of cortisone.
our muscles lost in the day-to-day
our bones repellant sprays on a nervous twitch.
no sacrirfice.
no treasured buried secrets stunning eyes.
it is peaceful here.
all eyes are lost and look their seperate ways.
it is glorious and dull
where the smaller people go
to cast aside at wind-speed our heir-apparent must.
