Bromford's Ark - Part 12 - 12:10 a.m.

Apartment 15 - Tenth Floor - left hand side … and we walk all night.

Oh, how I like this. It's like a movie in my head now that the cinemas are closed. 


There's a woman
On the outside
Looking inside
Does she see me?

No she does not
Really see me
Cause she sees
Her own reflection

And I'm trying
Not to notice
That she's hitching
Up her skirt

And while she's
Straightening her stockings
Her hair
Has gotten wet


'What are you all doing up so late in the night?' I can hear Kylie ask Ola and Olly Owl from the tenth floor and all the other neighbours.

'We are following Bromford Bibble, our great saviour and painter from the rooftop', Ola Owl says.

'Yes!' Olly Owl adds. 'He is a real fiddler on the roof. He gave us a sign.'

'What sign?' the llama asks.

'It was a pair of sandals he threw out of the penthouse windows', Ola says. 'It came sailing right by our living room window the other day!'

'Follow the sign! Follow the sign! Follow the sign!' all neighbours sing in a monotone choir.

'Really?' Nigel asks.

And way down we go …
