The Greyer Lives

Another wasted smile.

Another cigarette.

Another desperate glance

At the nearest bassinet.


Another tired face.

Another subway ride.

Another baby screaming;

Another departing tide.


Another rusty door-hinge.

Another weary traveller.

Another broken bedspring and

Another ugly lover.


Another flick of ash.

Another shade of grey.

Another tick of time:

It’s just another day.


Oh….hell.
Another bright red rose,

Another love-struck lad,

Another end of the rainbow –

I guess it ain’t so bad.
