As I sit

As I Sit (Part 1)
As I sit here in Soho Square
The tale of two cities passes
Through my mind

I contemplate suicide
As I observe the fresh faces
Of the London grind
Dickensian dreamers and
Two bit schemers
Walk arm in arm and
Sing the peasants song
Will they find heaven
Or will it be hell?
All I know is that
I can't stand the damn smell.
Gary Buckley. London, circa 2012.
