west london fire stories
burning up the day,
london fires burning down and out
before they burn away
daily all day robes
and a story i can't finish
i won't make it out, there's too much
i don't want to say
so late in the day
wasting life away
unheard singing
should probably count for something
maybe today, maybe today, maybe today
so late in the day
instant coffee,
INFP, unfinished story
cheap chinese burning debris
blazing away on the bbc
so late in the day, so late in the day, so late in the day
& the day becomes another day
must be so nice to be you
always voting for justin trudeau
all your better things to do,
all the better looking women you were born to pursue
london fires burn down and out
before they burn away
& the day becomes another day
maybe today, maybe today, maybe today

the cheap chinese cladding was rain proof,
even as it fell from as far up as the 24th floor
If only the cladding hadn’t been so flammable
or if the alarms would have worked
or if they hadn’t been told to stay put and die
then some other people donated their old clothes
that they didn’t want anymore
a lot of old used clothes that people had been meaning to get rid of
were donated
i read somewhere that it was supposedly environmentally friendly
eco-friendly, but toxic and flammable
but the fire was renewable energy
or unrenewable energy
depending on how you look at it
either way, the eco-friendly plastic cladding was rainproof.
& all the reasons i hate you
are sadly the reasons i still think thoughts of you
now these thoughts have turned into
thoughts of you
still too cool for Sixto Rodriguez
still editing "The Elements of Style"
still thinking thoughts of me
so past my prime
so past the time
of our short while
