“FREE” 14 Dec 98

No one has ever said
I want to pack boxes in a warehouse
or harboured the secret ambition of
being a train driver in his best trousers
to get away, somehow be free
drive a motorcycle like Steve McQueen in
Escape From Coventry

I’m not the only one
who wants a life better than this
to rise above the simple state
to do more than just exist
