Little Chinatown
Red lanterns sway between brass trees
Wood clicks more ways over shop doorways
Metal stairs leading upwards mentioned
Are paved with the best of my intentions
Track listing and watching passers by
From a restaurant with only two working lights
Desperate growl and a cat’s meow
Left to wander once kicked out
Set adrift in a sea of strangers
Not an eye to the lowest change us
Carousel of coloured lights
Send up the nighttime rooftop kites
From below;
Hungry and in awe
I find myself scaled down
