all the way from Southampton Row

on Southampton Row
down from Russell Square 
the people are blurry
under the night time lights 
of this-is-Saturday eve 
and the way Londinium 
is all of the way from here
going south down over 
the river out to where
the ancient lands change
and sometime become 
Andulusia, Morocco,
the tip of Africa still 
going south to the Cape, 
heat like dream time afternoons 
where everything stops 
and starts and has no
middle only the flow of
Southampton Row this 
time this eve this mad 
and crazed existence
