Spinsters

"Here's to the bachelors and the bowery bums,
and those who feel that they're the ones,
that are better off without a wife."

Here's to the bedridden and the bedsit-hermits.
Here's to the drummers and the night shifters,
the train-spotters and the royalists.
Here's to the empty bottle dwellers
and the agoraphobic nonsense poets.

Here's to the curtain twitchers, the obsessive cleaners,
The belligerent, the bankrupt,
the binge drinkers and the midnight snackers.
Here's to the drug-addled, dubstep dickhead next door.

Here's to the architects of meticulous shrines.
Here's to the collectors of clocks and shopping lists.
Here's to cats, and the crazies that keep them.
Here's to the angry letter writers.
Here's to the strangers, the stranger still and
here's to all the spinsters.
