Thoughts on a Picture of Two Men in Dinner Jackets
If they were Of The People they’d tog in tees
The uniform of the Proletariat
To demonstrate their unique specialness
And admire each other’s piercings and tats
Sitting at a bar in dinner jackets
Without any irony, just two men
And talking with each other, not to ‘phones
Quiet voices – so totally not cool
Having a few after a semi-do
They’ve been noticed1 - not Good Comrades, these two
1“Your attitude’s been noticed.” – Commissar to Yuri in Doctor Zhivago
