Your noddy-body rinses   it's ruddy cloudy skin   Stingy, unsettled, so,    summer sets in on the city,      Under umbrells   And waiting at counters   And the sun slips low down      Disappears the day after   Locked in the zoo, like   Animals braying low groans and deeper   Half-spit half-thoughts, half the wit.      Tighten up the barricades and   cool up   Here is something here is. Something is   Far from something, it has or it has not   She is either or niether   Taking a deep breath   As up we go out   With the tidy   Dolling out of bells tolling      Ellie, I'm sorry..   I...   I only meant to kiss you   Lying awake   On the edge of the bed,   The sun sits low   Down,   Ellie,   I'm sorry.
