158 Vauxhall Bridge Road


my little hideout

my glass and light bubble

if I open a window, i'll feel fresh morning air and hear a few early voices


the neighbours don't know me

they speak in a different accent

I retreat here when I'm not drifting these city streets

i'm bringing more ferns inside

every day

a few books and pillows

a low white bed

a thick navy duvet

i can smell the thames when it's windy


i brought someone here the other night

but he is long gone

the evenings are warm and long and bittersweet

i am alone in the honey sunshine 

of dusk
