Auckland

From the window in red brick
you can see the railway station
through glass from the window
sitting trainless sitting squat
right in front so big in red
brick so big so safe like
the old family car we used
to have on Sunday drives then
in green GENESIS in concert
all along long way you can still
see where one plank joins
the next at the corner the shop
with SEX! SEX! SEX! so loud
after that a sandwich shop
sandwiched between that
and a bank then another shop then
shop then shop shop shop all the
way as far as the eye can see
like the old paintings after the
discovery of perspective when
i noticed it was
eight o the birds singing
o how big the world o how big and o
how wonderful how faraway o
singing o o o o o
at my feet
o at my feet
