I was four when I partied like it was 1999.
Didn’t know what Y2K meant—
thought it was a new kind of Ribena.
Mom said the world might end,
so we had fish fingers and Angel Delight
like it was our last supper.
She danced in the kitchen—
hip in one hand,...

COPLA 99 INVOCATION : This Bad Guy World

Look : how Great leaders smile at the sky
Proud of the kettle-drum thunder they ply :
Safe underground

My life’s dull 
And I can’t get over the frustration

And I get nothing
But wishful thinking and
Shattered hopes....

At 99

There was a day when there was peace within his soul,
A day unlike the many days he’d spent,
A day in his afternoon in which he fell asleep again
And from his sickness, injuries was free.

Within that day outside his body floated he
