Recognition
Dec. 26th, 2010 02:30 pmI thought I recognised some guy
asleep off Berkeley Square.
His face had such a peaceful look
behind his dirty hair;
his beard, the scabs across his head,
I thought I'd seen before,
if anyone that I would know
was sleeping in a door.
On second thoughts, it wasn't him.
Or, well, I'll never know.
A glance was all the time it took
to pass him in the snow.
