Twilight of the Hods

Marjorie Lawrence 12 June 1939

Gotterdammerung’s off!

End of the world as they knew it.

All afternoon unquenchable thirst

accompanied by a mind made of puppy fat.

There is energy, it is all over the place;

thin and clumped, dry and soggy, like an ill

-kempt meadow or face.

 

For, making meadows is

no laughing matter: neither is the end

of the world, no matter when.

 

You Jest!

From The Sketchbook : Yompers

Wise fool,

state clown,

so no impact,

mock the weak,

so to speak,

ridicule the powerful,

doss down

in the vestibule,

drool,

cool…

 

Nose to grindstone.

Hard slog.

Trudge.

Yomp.

This is peace!

More mud than sludge.

What we put inside eachother…

do not nose. So, what’s to do today?

Sun, food, cider, shower…

Parsifal’s gone fishing should anyone ask.
