Peas (petit & varied)

Wish I was not here
Is it Friday tomorrow
Are you a moron
I try my very best to
I am not a calendar
Self evidently
Trying to be funny are you
It never works when I do
Who disappeared then
Smoke blows out my ass
A tobacconist

Sound no vision
Dum-de-dum-d-dumb-e-dum
Be heard but not seen
Dum-diddum-d-dada
Unread…but not red
Dum-de-dum-d-dumb-e-dum
What Caroline said
Dum-de-diddle-eee-argh
Dusk’s here (round half four),
falling to a soundtrack:
Jumpin’ Jive,
Cab Calloway.
1943
Cab?
Must be short for something.
All I can think of just now is
Cabellero
though I have no faith in it.
Surely, no-one would be called Cabin,
or Cable.
Not for a first name anyway.
Well, I’ll go to the foot of our stars!
It is Cable.
Spelt Cabell.
Something to do with cowbells?
Perhaps.
