The Angel's Bark


Sing the industructable piano song towards my big fat head!
I need it between my legs before I go to bed!
Wave away my flies
Wave away my flies
Let your pale white digits do the walking in the cavity
Let your mind run wild with its unlocked depravity
I am lying here smelling cigarette smoke and old cologne
Lying here thinking of where I’d like to poke my bone
What a theatrical show!
Beneath the snow!
One of natural woe!
From head to toe!
Look at you boy, you are the son of death
All scars and fur, the part of the beast
Look at you boy, you’ve lust on your breath
And baby, I wanna be your feast
The lightening it hits the town, lighting the spire and angering the snarling angels
Oh, a stranger, I don’t believe we’ve met!
My name it is purity, but my middle name’s regret
The pavers move up and down we better stomp quietly
Better take off the bells from our sleeves
Better not make a scene and put a stop to this revolution!
Those angels will see us
Those heavily armed angels, blushin’ snarlin’ throbbin’ like beasts adribblin’
They set the pavers a tumbling
Don’t make a noise they will hear it
And you better hope you aint been eatin’ onions- they’ll smell it on yer breath
Wave away them flies boy
Wave away them flies with yer teeth
The cows are in the meadow!
The sheep are in the corn!
But lets not get sad, no… let us not get forlorn
You gotta let your pretty dairy boy fingers find my crotch
And maybe we’ll even let your buddy watch
The Lightening it sets the village alight, the outline of the town is fixed against the night, the angels are a’circling, they’re afeeling alright
In crawls the beast
Yeah in crawls a naked woman
In crawls the man they call ‘The Executioner’
And the people hum a melody as he sings
‘Flesh and death, powder and kegs
gonna walk the road, between your legs
Soldier boy, farmer boy, baker boy, all
Gonna walk that road before you fall’
The people stop humming and relax
There is an angel that barks as it flies overhead
The drink is warm but it’s better than being dead
Another stranger? When it rains it pours!
My name is Purity, my game is on all fours
Do you wanna play?
I just want to feel a warm breath against my shoulder blade
Or do I mean I wanna feel a cold blade against my warm shuddering breath
Oh you make me laugh either way
Another angel barks and they snarl and they snarl and play their drums
The racket won’t stop us from sucking on each other’s lower thumbs
This palace it is lit by the lightening
And if you wave away my flies
I promise things won’t get frightening
Things won’t get frightening

Lake Daff-Dilly

Fish on the water Scales floating back and forth Grey clouds hanging high White clouds beneath A naked man asleep Drowsy with whiskey Strange sunlight on his calves His chest slowly rising, slowly falling The smell of wild herbs Smoke from the kitchen fire Sex on old blankets Lost on Lake Daff-Dilly Old myths talk of death The women think of birth Some wish they could leave The men pray on boats Trout stumble in their wake Drunk on the water's cold The flies were made by old hands The rod belonged to a dead uncle God I hope there is more whiskey The fire is still going I want you on old blankets Lost on Lake Daff-Dilly

Blind Me And Guide Me

What is it you want me to believe in? Is it the flock of birds flying like joined roses floating The peak of sensual age? I turn Twenty Nine and the climax is mine The plea of a generation held together by torture? The torture of the prophets- Whitman, he nurses us Is it the course touch of a hand roughened by sand and rock? The path that applauses every step to Sodom The generous buddhist- bearded with eyes closed? In bed with the russian before dawn, We Let Him Down! The cold winter warmed by cynicism and a centuries irony? You can warm my arse with your country charm The poets lining their pockets with fools gold? Lining up to be shot by the artists- a war with out generals The skeleton with eyes to the stars? Awake and noticing how the apple never rots Is it the shop keeper that keeps everything shaded? The man who keeps a statue of Apollo at the bottom of his pool The mongrel God of Egypt and Babylon? So large his nose was singed by the sun Is it the song of hope written in the s

Whose Language Will I Speak?

Allow me a little time to rest the clamour Upon the contours of your form The mirror gaze within your reply Will flash and fall and rise and build response Verbal shouts and gutteral groans In my room we both are right In hotels we are wrong Where will we die? Where will we scatter? Face down, lovers bodies, Russian grasses, Russian ice Before that I will paint you I will bury you in colour, on canvas While you tell me of your youth Of chasing birds and pretending you could fly The clamour is merely collection of one stands A collection of songs Trapped within my head, resting on your form And the guardian angles are sculpted into the architecture And I can see beautiful shade below your stomach As your leg is raised and it is an arch One to hold and make prayers from As I bow down and taste the flesh of man What will happen to us? Where will you die? You who was born to the poet and the siren Where will I go? Me, the hunter who has yet to return from the hi
