Save It for Someone Who Cares

Hunting spires

And an audience in the house of God

Such strange times

Pull me from my knees, genuflect and leave

Braving the weather, evading the stares

Save it for someone who cares

City life

In the glory of pink communal skies

Jostled bones

Hang in dying air breathed a million times

Down through the marching of beggars and heirs

Save it for someone who cares

We are the cats in the flea bitten folds

We will collapse with the weight of it all

Should we attack

Or be caught unawares

Save it for someone who cares

We get by

Swilling with the taste of the now and then

As we type

All our problems we will relive again

Echoes of violence, and office affairs

Save it for someone who cares
