Bedouin of the London Evening
Rosemary Tonks
 
 
Ten years in your cafés and your bedrooms 
 Great city, filled with wind and dust! 
 
Bedouin of the London evening, 
 On the way to a restaurant my youth was lost. 
 
And like a medium who falls into a trance 
 So deep, she can be scratched to death 
 By her Familiar -- at its leisure1! 
 I have lain rotting in a dressing-gown 
 While being savaged2 (horribly) by wasted youth. 
 
I have been young too long, and in a dressing-gown 
 My private modern life has gone to waste.
