Two And A Half Memories
For two and a half years I wandereth,
Shattered of mind+
Drained of spirit+
At the edge of the margin of the liminal ME.
I profitted no gain,
yet lost all fame.
Even my loved ones knew me not,
despite wearing a t-shirt which proclaimeth
my name and announceth mine visage.
(A blow-up of my 1988 Passport Photo.)
In it, I look sad, because that was my childhood.
If I only knew what was to come I might have
cheered up a little.
I'm here.
I'm here.
Pull up a cheer while I table my thoughts.
And lead the chair while I wrangle my doubts.
The great thing about this place is its dark-soaked darkness,
sticky carpet and repellent service.
Let's drink to the afternoon and through the afternoon
and remember years past when the sound on the telly was
muted and so were we.
Chairs.

2009
2009, it has a fine ring.
Even before it’s done a thing.
With a crash of a symbol
And a flail of a wing
The white dove of peace
Will attempt to sing –
You motherf***ers are choking me!
You motherf***ers are choking me!
You motherf***ers are choking me!
And I haven’t got home from my
New Year’s Party, yet, you w**kers.

The Rockford Files
"This is Jim Rockford. At the tone, leave your
name and message - I'll get back to you."
“Hey there, Jimmy, this is Lep.
Me and the guys are having a poker night,
Tuesday.
We’ll bring the beer and the processed
meat platter and the wheel of cheese -
you bring a big bucket of Nostalgia and
a side-order of ‘slaw.
My 1970s childhood, thanks you.”
