Ooh Ooh Ooh
What’s this hulk
Rolling me – a spider
Big as a
Saucepan
Or The Man,
The Electric King?
Says he can
Pour the universe
In one eye, says
They’re making
Skeletons
In the dessert,
With just the best bits
Stapled on.
I’m elbowed over
Bill’s page, Bill loves
Flamiche – says
he’s gone,
On a plane,
At the lake, says he’s
Never wrong –
It’s his birthday, says
He feels like star
Light across
The screen now,
But even I know
The dead
Have birthdays.
