On the feast of Stephen
Saw the snow spread white and plain

My love, have you finally found?
That my steps don't even touch the ground?
My head's always wrapped in fog,
And I'm caught singing to the dog?

I used to like barbells, enjoyed pumping iron,
   my Nautilus* gym was one happy environ.

To those clouds that surrounds within me.

Pretending to be every Jon to get a doll

 my heart bounced like a roller-coaster
 each luscious curve drew me deeply in
 my mind smoked in delicious sexual sin

To Grecian god beneath reveal.

Lots more eat fish and chips.

I stood in awe as she alighted like a bird upon some branch,
Belisha beacon to the abyss bound  clochard.
Bonfire for uncanny scion  adrift,
 ignited by her
