purgatory close
by grimbeau
In a
feigned
venerable brogue
a warbler from the threshold uttered:
‘Mornin has nine—Gingerman gone ’
‘No! not JP Dun Laorghaire?’
‘No! JP Donleavy’…
& so thus was made good a verbal contract
struck whilst missing a late night movie
made about the Kray Twins
to inform, educate & entertain
& fulfill the Charter of the Landed Pantisocracy—
Small sacrifice under such
circumstance methunks.
To leave one’s notes copious
abandoned to awake
irksome hostages
to outrageous misfortune
of Birthplace and/or origin squander waking hours
reinforcing time out shifts
lost down purgatory close
