We Are Going Out Today

We are aimed at the city.

We are freshly washed and woken.

We are combed and clipped.

We are shirted, skirted, suited.

We are waxed and slicked.

We are riding machines today.

We are sealed in travelling containers.

We are pleasant, patient, polite.

We are watching the world through windows.

We are keeping our knees to ourselves.

We are keeping an eye on the stops.

We are smiling at jumpered children.

We are passing the movement of morning.

We are going out today.

We are aimed at the city.
