wanted this to hit harder for me, but alas! did feel seen a few times in surprising ways 🪞

deceptively very short—Rodrigues Fowler plays a lot with form and this almost functions as a novel in verse at times

And in the dark Soho night there would be dancing drunk tipsy where’s my oyster card dancing
night bus first tube sun rise dancing
high heel red dress lipstick dancing

loud loud laughing…laughing dancing
