The Train Bogies
The train bogies passing
As the lined match-boxes
Trailing and chugging
And going
And whistling
And passing out of sight.
Crime And Punishment
Me Lord, I am in your court
Standing as criminal
For your judgement.
The Dream of Bringing An Illiterate Country Bride
A half-literate rural girl
As my bride
Want I to bring her
Who will at least love me,
Take care of
Rather than a modern town girl
Over ambitious, over smart.
A half-literate girl
As my wife
From the country,
Rural area
I shall bring her home,
My shy and coy mistress
She will come to my home.
Not a townsgirl
Smart, frank and bold,
But a village girl
She will be happy with
Whatever I give to her,
My country wife,
Valuing me rather than money.
Life Is A Stage of The Theatre / For The Theatre Girl
The theatre girl
In her all make-up
Viewing the world
With her collyrium-applied eyes
And the tears falling down
When about to leave
The fair venue
For another place
In search of shows
To be shown.
The theatre girl
Doing the make-up,
Dressing and readying
To go
For another fair ground
Where people will come
To enjoy
The plays and parts,
But to move from one place
To another,
The tragedy of her living.
