Oh, long the day you are not near!

Though there’s no cloud the sun is dim

How long the day where you’re not here

The air is grey the flowers are grim

Chores are labour when you’re out

And what the fuck is life about

When you’re not here?


No modulation towards cheer

And stuff like “though not you ARE here”

I miss you, miss you, miss you dear

When you’re not here.

Our Girls Come to Gillingham

The thoughts that scourge me in the night

Cannot defer the living skies

Of dawn and morning’s hopeful light...

Irrationality

You’re as wise as you are pretty 

When you say to me “Let go”

And when I think it a monstrous pity...
