taking leave from the yellow construction 
all the sound of the bamboo-flute...

the riverbank,
sucking Go-anna eggs
till it brought

Big white light it came and got,
Zapped me, jerked me up aloft,
A bloody flying saucer.

Saw the circle spinning disk,
With panels from one did whisk,
Beam of...

Me an Jack n Joe are sweet,
We are living on the street,
Turfed out of Hospital & Nursing homes,
Morven Hospital closed, poor oldie’s moan,
The Government stroke, toot suite!

Too pick upon the worker poor,
To persecute the sickly...
