I love the times you call me a cunt

Though some might think it an affront

But I still bliss in knowing this:

Behind each cunt word is a kiss,

Each savage swearword hides a song

Of love to tell me I belong

 

Belong to the beautiful team called Us

Where there’s not disharmonious fuss

But realisation, and the fact

That our encounter was an act

Made in heaven, or something like

Where love’s in power and hate’s on strike

 

So, darling darling it’s no stunt

Nor are you being unfairly blunt

When you say (I love it) “cunt”

Storm and Stress

Across the view the long wall stretches

Dark, but topped with lonely snow

Stark branches grasp a sky that’s low...

Coming Home

When coming out into the evening air

The sky is filled with promise, blue or clouded

The streets are joy, the bus beyond compare...
