Coming upon nine.
Something’s happening round here
Burning onions, tincture of molasses,
burning ground, quicklime pits,
call withdrawn enabled,
false razor wire eyelash,
brunette Lillibulero,
crazy gown drape flourish,
staircase winding
round and round
like a teddy
bear hug
Battle of Britain
When hurricanes spitfire
The first of the few
shoplifting Woolworth’s blind
no security cameras
in the seventies
~
Hercules and Apollo eleven
Led me into a life
Of Saturday morning crime
With twenty two pence change
Just enough for glue
A Wimpy Bender
C?
C what?
You left it there
Did I,
can’t remember
here look –
C!
Dog keen to bursting
Movement yields results
Night gives way to day
Outside it is unraining non stop.
Grabbed about five for Lethe.
Dreams go west with light.
Stop reading everything straight
away with a view to a kill;
always at fives & sevens.
There are other numbers.
