Do you have special ‘Going Out’ shoes and what colour are they?
Seventeen and a Hundred Years Old.
November rains wash the dreams down the drain
And a rainbow lies bleeding in the street
Where it gets splashed by car tyres to the edge
And on to red shoes on a young girl’s feet.
“Damn!” she says “Diesel always stains like hell,
Yeah, but no-one will notice in the dark.”
And as a limousine pulls to a halt
It’s time for her to step up to the mark.
Seventeen years or a hundred and two
A thousand years from her eyes to her soul.
A window rolls down, a bargain is struck
This one looks loaded, she feels on a roll..
The radio hawks and spits in the night
The lights on the squad car paint the crowd
Gazing at a broken bargain – red shoes,
And beyond them, a green tarpaulin shroud.
This poem is very special. I loved it. It has everything in a poem I like.
The rhyme is perfect (and yet never forced), the imagery is magical….the two opening first lines – wow, I wish I’d written them..jealous is what I am!, it tells a story – despite being only four verses and these are full of detail – the last verse, especially is like the last scene in a film…it is so clear. And to top it all it has such a lot to say about a society which turns a blind eye to such tragic lives.
Wonderful.
