A leaflet dropped through my door today, It glowed, glistening blue, blameless, As it hit the floor with a thud, Safer neighbourhoods was the title, Written by the police,
Last night, I dreamed a dream that scared me, I woke up to a tear stained pillow, At an unknown hour, my mind blown to pieces, A mirage of confusion, shattered by the arrival of reality,
I was sat perched at the table, famished, for my dinner, Save those couple of chocolates, I’d stuffed earlier, I switched on the telly; the news was on, background music as always,
