There are some places we never leave
It was the strangest thing I had ever seen
The electricity ran out
She did not call anyone
She was not even surprised
In her flat were solutions to all of life's problems
She searched through her change for a pound sterling
Quid pro quo
I followed her out in the hallway
wondering where we were going
I had no idea
It was just above the door
She slotted in the coin and turned the dial
I followed her back to the table as did the electricity
North London so we finished our tea
