Mermaids Notting Hill Carnival 2019
Like wandering Ulysses sailing across endless oceans
Lost at sea listening to the mermaids’ distant call
Lured into Charybdis’ hungry crutches, or was it Scylla
Alcohols and smokes have turned the streets into maelstroms
Fuelling our irresistible inclination for fatal attractions
