He drank the dark tearful sorrows away,
As he walked he abused,

He was a bad, violent, angry dark man.
He made people cry, 'specially...

The Stanzas By the Sea
I
when the world had no headsets
the sunbathing crowd
fell asleep to the sounds of
transistors played loud
while the deckchairs and windbreaks
kites, beach balls and more
formed the stripes, lines and circles
that painted the shore
and the longer I walked

Pap had said to Weston
"I can't do this alone."

Of days long faded, in history's hold

In our hearts engraved, for times untold

Folded carefully in our minds
Each tale,...

To get in my sweet baby's arms,"

At the end of each day

He was a down to earth fellow,
And his vine was fruitful

Hiding My Cigarettes
9:00pm on the dot
And I materialize on the spot:
A Benson ‘n’ Hedges spot
I would at it stop
On a fairly spent night
To enact a scene not right;
Raven-Black for stupid actions
The Pitch-Black unwise options;
Christ, I’m sure in...

a measure of a love that went astray,
from libelled forces, which compelled his hand,
to lies, and morals left to slow decay.

“Was the car actually a Camry?”
John delayed, then got free cigarette
Of a brand prized above his Lovette.
And he didn’t hear his voice drop “Yes...”

Leave It Cleaner

Do not be too high for a minial task.
