I don't like
shopping at Christmas
3 strangers talking to me at the same time
crowds of people laughing and shouting
looking at people's quickly moving faces
smelling cigarette breath and aftershave
adverts shouting in my head to buy things
when people grab me like ready-made rubbish
a rushing river of people and only one way to go
I like a really cold winter night when all I could see was a star
Found poem source:
Haddon, Mark. The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, Vintage Books, New York, 2003. pp: 8-10, 23, 32-39, 51, 82, 101-104, 145, 154, 178

a girl with a mortal heart
ached and starving and cold
she swore to pay her dues
in sand and seaweed and luck
