The Lost Stradivarius

6:14 PM

Alone all day awake and asleep, done

no work, went out on the balcony: the

batman plays the Stradivarius – Blink.

You’ve got to…

You’ve got to….

You’ve got to…

c. 1630

disseminate the creasote,

eliminate the soft soap,

perpetrate a bank job,

and don’t mess with canneloni beans

 

You’ve not to…

obliviate the blue note

denigrate an old scrote,

consummate a dead goat

and then defenestrate the queen

 

look at the sun

it’s great fun

make yourself blind

and then it’s done

darkness ain’t all bad

 

remember to…

make a resolution

to eat a rosicrucean

and celebrate confusion

and don’t go to sleep before your dreams

 

One more time!

Don’t go to sleep before your dreams…yeah!

 

 

 

 

 

Mad Ithaca

Chronicles of an endgame sour the day,

the last cormorant glides home half-asleep.

mauve tapering headland not faraway

Is darker; the treachery still indiscrete.

I trail past the quiet, dark caravan,

chest pounding with sorrow; tried to walk it

off but it don’t go – a woe-begotten

rotten vixen’s smashed my fragile heart.

On the rise, I make up the chintzy night scene

of Port Ithaca’s tourist hostelries.

Thronging poached Grockles being obscene

Python Lee Jacksons in a broken dream
