Recoil

I stare over my coffee cup
Take care not to mix you up
With some other me

I share your arm movement
Bare skin of singular intent
Meant for all to see

There is little now that stirs
I defer to my memory
Despair; flair is not to be

Rich

Lightless windows

At the end of the day

A strength of blue

Purpose made

For lovers at play

Play on the waterfront

Play in the drinkers bar

Play at the all-night discotheque

Before the moonlight arrives

With the morning star

Café days

The congestion

More congested

Would a breath

Of oxygen

Ease

The conveyor belt

Bar Days

Just beneath the Jameson
Down the road
From the crocodile skin shoes

Watching the video
Streets of Philadelphia

Holy Moses
How much fun

To be with Children
No, no, no
Yah, yah, yah
