…
poetry came
& shat on the mattress
spat on my cacti
& fused my toaster
poetry came
& smoked all my tea bags
sucked my dictionary
& drank my inkwell
poetry came
so all my friends vanished
even the real ones
– i never made from plasticine
poetry came
through an open casement window
from the direction
of the local sewage works
poetry came
on a grey bank holiday
& nicked all my cravats
– the cheeky, thieving twat
poetry came
& danced on my desk
pissed in my kettle
& left me with this mess
…
