nothing seems lesser than dresses, blousons, bingo blossom games
duality, some girls, their minxy whirls and crochet hoo-hahs
nothing offends me less than bones, bean stalks
originality, airstrip scenarios and pick-n-mix gangsters
everything is field mice, door mice, salvaged desires
drum feats, tad poles, flags of inconvenience
this actual life with its beasts and bourbon
street pissers, the voices calling through the grates
wisdom winked before beauty belched
and I turned my back into an encyclopediatric miracle
glory, glory, I am forty
glory be, you’re forty-three
sister, sister, how I miss ya
have a cup of rosy lee
god returned to anfield with passion fruit
I shuffle like a flower, if that make’s no sense
between the bay and the con
between heaven and help
lie the killjoys: appollinaire, smoke-filled thighs, the done deal down below
ahh… so lovely, your country accent
the picnic with bluebottles and gin
the sloe dumb sun of violence
wasting time or waiting? drought-fingered
words speeding through my lights like ambulances
gold clasp with intaglio medallion
gold ring with virgin and child
gold necklace with amethysts, glass beads and a
pearl
gold girdle with coins and medallions
pendulum thoughts
goats as bagpipes, pigs as hurdy-gurdys
listen, all of us live inside some form of question
remember, all of us run when we see the bend
