My Favourite Footbridge
At the footbridge day and night
Dreams meet and dreams avoid
The footbridge is never annoyed
Smiles Sigmund Freud
At this end the highway
At the other the park
Connects the two contrast
The footbridge smiles in the dark
Dreams in the dark chamber
The fountains turn and toss
Listening to the footfall chaos
The footbridge I walk across
Hurry up says the red bird
The police inspector is there
I run across the footbridge
To my easy chair
On one side the blood and dust
On the other your restless bird
The footbridge one has to trust
To bear the world very hard
