London

We are terribly sorry,
But we cannot help you.
We’d love to, but we can’t.

No use giving us that grim look –
Really, we can’t.
We’d appreciate your understanding.

Your taking up
Anybody’s time here
Is thoroughly futile.

Perhaps those people over there
Yes, those over there,
Will be able to help you out.

Anyway, look around,
It is a beautiful city.
We don’t want to get involved.
