Gun Street Girl - Galway, 1988

I get off the last bus, return trip from Dublin.
Walking back in the empty damp,
hands jammed in pockets, fingering the change.
The soundtrack is what i found
in the left-behind tape deck in my rented flat,
with its view of the bay, and its cold shower down the hall.
I carry the downtown old beer and chip-shop smell through
the barnacled dark.
