What would you do on BBC4 or ITV2
could you be body shopping,
eyeball popping?

I should be a fantasy on
Radio3 while you
fantasize about Radio5
instead,
I'm an ideogram
a faint figure of a man.

As I sink into another submarine
I can dream of other things
and see what tomorrow brings.

I hear that the fat lady sings falsetto
I need to go
and listen.
John Bartholomew Dec 2020
Its been a long night
The ones you fancied have left in fright
Anything'll do now
A fat one,
A badly dressed one,
A four kids at 22 one,
A Mackie Dees for breakfast one,
A ITV2 is my favourite channel one,
I just need reassurance and some fake love
Enough to just top me up
To keep me going from the break up I never saw coming
For this is now a kingdom with no rule,
So my love,

Get your coat (you've pulled).
