When I was very young

and not being a wilful handful,
I sought quiet hospitality - toast
by a blazing fire, widow-
presence, antimacassars,
tasselled tablecloths,
sugar-tongs and Dundee cake
on a silver-plated stand.
And now
I'm looking forward to the
welcoming, black hospitality
of everlasting nomansland.
