She got up and went away
Should she not have? Not have what?
Got up and gone away.
Yes, I think she should have
Because it was getting darker.
Getting what? Darker. Well,
There was still some
Day left when she went away, well,
Enough to see the way.
And it was the last time she would have been able …
Able? … to get up and go away.
It was the last time the very last time for
After that she could not
Have got up and gone away any more.
‘She Got Up and Went Away’, Stevie Smith
