The Shipping Forecast

	She made a starshape
	on the ground
	drew me up with marmite fingers.
	She was the most English of girls
	hair hung straight to pretty curls.
	Ducking for froth with the end of her nose.
	Harry Nillson poured out on a cartridge.
	It starts to rain.
	All our wishes came unstuck
	all that we wanted.
	There’s truth in travellers’ tales
	there was this girl.
	In the summer I’ll be boring them
	both with castles
	when we’re apart.
	All our wishes came unstuck
	all that we wanted.
	I have been there
	spinning with the payload
	“It’s a bomb dear –
	elbows off the table.”
	One by one cloudless and starry
	age of reason sheer weight of numbers.
	Took the path to the top of the hill
	stopping for breath
	stopping for holding on.
	Where do we go from here
	right to the end
	right to the end of the sky.
	The older I get the less it makes sense
	the colder I get.
	When you are there
	it starts to make a little bit of sense.
	When you’re not around
	it doesn’t make any sense anymore.
	It’s all fallen down.
	Vespasian brought his legion here
	now it’s all fallen down.
	Vespasian brought his people round
	now it’s all fallen down.
	Within the circle of a Kathryn wheel
	that starts to burn and turn
	away from here.

	She made a starshape
	on the ground
	drew me up with marmite fingers.
	She was the most English of girls
	hair hung straight to pretty curls.
	Ducking for froth with the end of her nose.

	There' s truth in travellers' tales

	In the summer I' ll be boring them

	When you' re not around

	It' s all fallen down.
	Vespasian brought his legion here
	now it' s all fallen down.
	Vespasian brought his people round
	now it' s all fallen down.
	Within the circle of a Kathryn wheel
