Bitters End

(ferry)



At last the crimson chord cascade

To shower dry cordials within

Too late to leap the chocolate gate

Pale fountains fizzing forth pink gin

While destiny begins to fly

The farmyard chorus sings its wake

Upstanding anthem to the sky

Too soon to realise their fate

You were the raven of october

I knew the sign you flew around

Up in the air so high above me

Never needed to look down

I never thought i´d be a rover

I didn´t even look around

But now i know you´ve found another

So will someone please find me

Give now the host his claret cup

And watch madeira's farewell drink

Note his reaction acid sharp

Should make the cognoscenti think
