rubik's cube
You are a study in
contradiction,
(Filofax looks and
roller coaster smile.)
You've patience short
as a fireman's hosepipe,
eyes that you
narrow like the Nile.
You walk like you're dancing
at the Pope's wedding;
talk like you haven't
got the time to stop.
You're always grinning
when it's raining
(down from the bottom
and up from the top).
You mock like a bat
but you're scared of darkness-
scared of losing
your own two feet.
Your misplaced faith
In your own self-loathing
lurks in the sun
taking pride in defeat.
