Savvy

Trumpets alert me
brass and
cold blown
from pursed lips
shrivelled
like an old woman's anus
blowing evil down the tube

Carried well on the wind you can hear them from so far away
smell them from so far away
listen to their alarms
their foetid alarms signalling disaster so you might as well give up and go home

Regal and authoritative
brass band salvation army knows what's what
who's who
who wants what
no one wants you
