whit gowd gloat an' slap o' wallet glee  *gold
aboot Da Vinci
he worn humaneety
at his cuff
& wad not be chuffed
wi' such spew an' tinkle o' coinee
in oor toonie
doon the streetie 
frae oor hoosie
ootby the offie    *outside the off-licence
sqattin' on the causey   *squatting on the street
be a queanie*   *girl 
grund in muckie   *ground in muck
beggin' fir a tinny   *beer
she's fifteenie
brass brightie 
bonnie
ev'n in sfumato fog 
her phizog
aglow 
swapt fir renaissance oil an' tintie
might mak we revere thon extraordinaire lassie
alas
whit atrocious bitterness
bring us hither?
filth spoil
lament her stupor
our sobriety
fir fuck          
there is nae such thing as society
