The Day of the Nocturnal Glide


After dressing a pack of flyblown sonnets I am
Taking a breather tonight like the fox of desire
I catch wind of your highborn scent and I’m off
Sprinting through these flea-bitten songs these
Pelts of schmaltz O listen to the wind behaving so
Obviously empty I have a very ancient ailment
And mean it so come a little closer it’s catchy
I don't ask for much just that we avoid misery
And that you test your lungs by running here
With me a harrowing task yes for one who must
Cough a lot from the sooty ambiance of glamor
I know you only truly breathe in dreams come on
Slip into your most comfortable skin the pelage
You wear when you prowl the narrow streets
