actually  (  a  p o e t i c a l  )

…

none of these hills

are actually hills

they're huge goosebumps

the wind it chills

this fearful land

this restless still

none of these hills

are actually hills


none of these lakes

are actually lakes

they're big puddles

make no mistake

these things soon build

for fishes sake

none of these lakes

are actually lakes


none of these trees

are actually trees

they're drama students

can't you see?

this wooden cast

of wannabes

none of these trees

are actually trees


( & )

none of this verse

is actually verse

'tis gobshite fare

a gift-stroke-curse

& yet it rhymes

oh aye, terse nurse

none of this verse

is actually verse


( phew )
