Thinking we were safe-insanity!
We went in to make love. All the same
Idiots to trust the little hotel bedroom.
Then in the gloom...
...And who does not know that pair of shutters

All screeching whispers?

Additional quotes by Rosemary Tonks

— All this sitting about in cafés to calm down
Simply wears me out. And their idea of literature!

My café nerves are breaking me
With black, exhausting information.
