Wayne's World

by @roo

I wish I lived in Wayne’s World, where Wayne and Garth are real. I wish I had Cassandra’s curls, and her sex appeal. I wish I dated Jason Dean, and coloured him impressed. I wish I had the killer gene, but never ever confess. I wish I went to Ashfield Hospital, and looked a little on edge. Explored shutter island in the spittle, and made the Marshall pledge. I wish I lived with Yeats, or in the lonely moated grange, I wish I danced on table tops, my body for money, fair exchange. I wish reality didn’t exist, or better yet just me, all those opportunities would be missed, and at peace I’d finally be.

Notes

A few of my favourite films/poems/poets incorporated into what started off as a uniform poem but soon disintegrated. (a metaphor for my life)
