House Of Rebecca
Clockwork Monkey

Here was the house of Rebecca

Who prayed at seven every night, I know

Because I did not and she always thought

I must be joking


Here was her old window

That silently took us inside

Her mother's muffled enquiries

Rumbling in the house

Like some distant thunder


Here was her bedpost

She hid tightly-wound comics in

Here a chest from India

You could squeeze and fit

The both of us in



Here was her dog always asleep on the chair

Here was her box of secrets

Beneath the third along the stairs

Here's where she burnt her hands

On the candles that her father

Always kept there


Here was the house of Rebecca

A car park now for the store

Selling tea cakes and trinkets for tourists

They can sit on the balcony and listen

To the rumble of thunder in the hills

Before the next bus comes
