Dame Street

What would you like to do right now
She asked, eyes wide and hopeful
For I know not what,
How can we take advantage of a night
So full of rain and strangers?
So many unspeakable things passed
Through my mind but not through my lips
And all I could manage was one dumb smile
To meet another and more words
To weave into a smokescreen
As we stood by the taxi rank
And Dame Streets evening roar.
