conversation - louis macneice lyrics
Loading...
ordinary people are peculiar too:
watch the vagrant in their eyes
who sneaks away while they are talking with you
into some black wood behind the skull
following un*, or other, realities
fishing for shadows in a pool
but sometimes the vagrant comes the other way
out of their eyes and into yours
having mistaken you perhaps for yesterday
or for tomorrow night, a wood in which
he may pick up among the pine*needles and burrs
the lost purse, the dropped stitch
vagrancy however is forbidden; ordinary men
soon come back to normal, look you straight
in the eyes as if to say ‘it will not happen again’
put up a barrage of common sense to baulk
intimacy but by mistake interpolate
swear*words like roses in their talk
