I've been up and down lately, well.. more than lately, kinda jumpy too  Y'know... Figure if I jump high enough with the earth spinning beneath me the way it does I'll see it all for free... Mostly I jump waiting the next bus on cemetery hill, up and down and up again watching burials intermittently over the wall, my now you see me- now you don't appearances are part of the mourning process in Selly Oak these days; leaving folk in holes with dirt on their faces, their chests and their feet frightens me, seems gravity's got a hold on them forever now, so I'm glad for the days when smoke stacks exhale and the wind is filled with people, I feel the bounce in my sole remembered and I know sooner or later I too will catch an updraft and fly.... I've been up and down lately.. well..     more than lately I've been kinda jumpy too Y'know ?

Kinda jumpy....
