10am 

the emotion was so great 
and people trying to burgle it 
and i locked it 

we still got the key 
and how to keep the burglars out its like 
that halfway house where pople s doors 
were kicked in routinely 

the day i left i sat on the 
pavement with 
my belongings waiting for a car 
and watched a couple of burglaries 
while i waited 

God and we
witnessed a stabbing in there 
and a guy recovering from a brain op 
having his door kicked in as well 

King Arthur tried to intervene 
in the stabbing as was is wont you know 
he'd feel responsible to sort everyone out ... 

i had £90 nicked from the electric 
metre which i had to pay back to the council 
out of my JSA and they told me that 
adding an extra lock would constitute damage 
to council property and it was
for my own safety that they needed to kick the door in 

*********

and of course King Arthur 
would cut himself too and stand 
on the walkway all bleeding and stuff 
and the whole place like totally porous
