morning frost
over the budding crocuses
chattering magpies

my overdraft
past it's allowed limit
and there won't be a top-up
in the foreseeable future
but I need petrol
and she wants cigarettes and whiskey
and it's still the nineties
where all you need is a credit card
and a signature
and the state of mind not to worry
about tomorrow's red letters.
