the day maybe died
running out on the new book half way through you deal
faces these are blue days blues ‘I wish we was (I were) in St Malo’
or wherever I’m not sure this is not
so illogical as it sounds today land’s never mind
considering the where you are where I am factor of the situation
at first I too had intended harmony like a huge ‘O’ but I seem to have
finished early ‘the bad break is hardest to mend’
no shit
and the criminal loops his smooth fingers
about a tree it is all too tall and obvious
how about a short tomato what’s the difference?
the difference is my face is empty as a rotten microscope
waiting for something really big to get my teeth into
‘is it your bank or another one?’ I don’t have the heart
too many questions
I’m not really interested in the intricate yesterdays of a talking horse
give me the down to turf derby every time laugh to win
bubbles (10-1) at Ascot ‘is it really possible to go anywhere with ladybirds?’
you may well ask
we rose too early this morning to do things the way we intended
work was out the exercise bike of broken images had flown away with itself
making a mockery of my lit cigarette the moon in which
future rooks are roosting their eyes quail like eggs in the walked crooks
of their hands
‘is nothing sacred?’ ‘dear teddy-bear Joe: no’ it’s not as if
it’s only you who is tasteless energy sleeps south of your thrilling paws
clubbed together for a glass of sangria I offered but a bottle of Raymond
was what was needed not quite celebratory coverage but celebrity ladies wear
in a shop window Jacques Brel style
the effortlessness of your impossible health
is frustrating sure you can sing but can you dance
the king of Pepsi duffed up outside court opens his white arms
like an uncharitable disease with soft spots for everyone
soon we’ll be talking notes too many questions
are out of the question hair trigger reactions blue looks
‘dear Frank (you’re fired)
what do you make of all this’ but you’re having a coke with the wrong sponsor
the burgers are on bald Elvis green eyed in Hawaii
