Awakening
Grave mouths of lions Sinuous smiling of young crocodile Along the river's water conveying millions Isles of spice How lovely he is, the son Of the widowed queen And the sailor The handsome sailor abandons a siren, Her widow's lament at the south of the islet It's Diana of the barracks yard Too short a dream Dawn and lanterns barely extinguished We are awakening A tattered fanfare -Jean Cocteau

A chapter in verse '... they flatter her madly'

Little twig isn't big

To you, but she is

To me.

But however I don't like it

When she makes faces.

And she seldom talks

When we go to places

And meet people

And sit around.

But she prances at dances

Gets crushes, takes chances

With boys, wears a hat

No shoes, and they flatter her

Madly. What of that?

Neat, maroon, blue and white

Lace and chord, velvet. Might

Even keep her coat on if its right.

Next week

All change

To purple

Or black

Perhaps

I am their damaged megaphone

work continues, big, small and all things in between...[continued]

I am their damaged megaphone dead artist speak to me and thru me you'd do very smartly to listen they speak to me with voices filled with mud and clay and decay people feel violated by the stench of their breath they are not desert prophets or nessissary sat next to god or the devil but I am sat smack in the midst of them their rotting teeth grinding and whispering black thoughts in my ear and I am their damaged megaphone barking across the nite calling for art with out art for love with out love for hate without hate for lite without lite and you'd do very smartly to shut up and listen -billy childish
