#21 Golconda


An image such as this
might have been
what the Poynter Sisters
had in mind when they
sang It's raining men,
Hallelujah
. Or maybe
it was that other song
of theirs called - was it? -
Creole Lady Marmalade
with its refrain of
voulez-vous couchez avec
moi, ce soir
; & they
were working on the principle
that if you ask enough people
sooner or later some body's
bound to come across
even if it is only
an anonymous Mr Average
in a mass-produced bowler hat.
