Time traveller<\/span>
 <\/span>

The girl on the underground is a sartorial time traveller.<\/span>
Navy high waisted pencil skirt tightens over her ripened<\/span>
bottom, blue pinstripe shirt, demurely buttoned up to the<\/span>
collar, sets her rocket breasts on a youthful trajectory.<\/span>
Despite the carriage\u2019s bumper car jolting, she balances on<\/span>
death defying stilettos like an accomplished trapeze artist.<\/span>
Although her Siamese cat\u2019s eyes peep out through letter box<\/span>
spectacles and her harvest of blonde hair is gathered into a<\/span>
generous bun, this girl is not waiting to be transformed in a<\/span>
\u2018Why you are beautiful Miss Jones\u2019 revelation, because like<\/span>
Marilyn in that dress, she is more erotic in her 50s costume<\/span>
than standing stark naked on the tube. Yet there are no Sid<\/span>
James remarks from the suited men, builders in dusty denims<\/span>
and youths in shorts, who surrounded by casual girls oozing<\/span>
flesh like a gallery of Reuben\u2019s nudes, stare only at her and pant.<\/span>
