View of Scotland/Love Poem
'Down on her hands and knees on ten at night'
'jiffywaxing the vinolay'
'(This is too ordinary to be nostalgia)'
'a newly opened tin of sockeye salmon...slab of black bun'
'Though we do not expect anyone...fanned out'
'petticoat-tails...bone china'
'Last year it was very quiet'
'Mum's got her rollers in with waveset'
'well-pressed good dress'
'Nearly half-ten already and her not shifted!'
'If we're to even hope to prosper this midnight must find us how we would like to be'
'A new view of Scotland...takes its place'
'Darling, it's thirty years since anybody was able to trick me'
'December thirty-first...'
'and two already since'
'We did not know...did we?'
'off-licenses pull down their shutters'
'In highrises and tenements'
'sunburst clock tick on dusted mantelshelves'
'Everyone puts on their best spread of plenty'
'(for to even hope to prosper this midnight must find us how we would like to be)'
'golden crusts on steak pies like quilts on a double bed'
'There is no time like the present for a kiss'
