Friday Unlocked

An odour of garlic
and it's raining 
but 
I don't think the two
are connected 
it's probably a
coincidence.

Night birds in the tube train
and no vampires here to 
drain my blood
which is a good thing
all things being considered.

I'm watching carefully
fully aware of how people
change

it's often heard on the 
Central line
'All Change'

I'm safe for now
my cross
is constantly with me

He looks dangerous 
with his meticulously 
manicured nails 

Frankenstein on the rails 
monsters on the metropolitan 
I'm getting off at Tottenham 
Court
you ought to know that
by now.
