unpromising,
this ****** clay
scooped from the thames.
old, used scoured
****** of old father
thames, river of home,
of shame and escape.
mould me, make this
wet lump pliant,
knead it into man-shape
paint it green, blue or
gold, red white and blue,
not with harsh horse-
hair brush, but soft
with tender finger-tips.
fashion mouth ears eyes
and that piece some
women prize.
breathe life into this
teeming, fleshing thing
mouth to mouth, eve,
make me man with
kind words and passion.
take a rib and press it
to your *****
