People Come People Go

People come, and people go Poets are just the same you know But what decides to where Poets travel Please be free to say and unravel Is it down to a desire to move on Or take the huff and say it's not for I Mm, maybe it's about histrionics Leading to behaviour becoming chronic Well then, shall we share and spill the beans Boycott to detention with a slap on the wrist For if whomever fails, be read to has been And miss the ass they've always kissed

Ah, I am guilty of leaving for extended periods but only because I've lost my inspiration or become too busy (so I think). I always love your work James. And I am so happy for the love you have in your life. I was just in Cebu in April, visiting my expat father and his wonderful wife of over 20 years now.

Hey that Ass they've always kissed, gone from the Soup they'll never be missed. It's only when they've been here, that lips have touched, once gone, they're no more couched. Then their consternation shall die a laugh, Sadly into another's Path :(
