yesterday and no fibbing
a robin unbidden
like a mad bobbin
threatened-

crying we are no
good!
but that is the way
it is..

still,you have the
choice-
it is a ****
sandwich!

put out the light
and take a bite
god,
we have a name

or go
somewhere
where it is
exactly the same..

a robin appeared
bringing rain
stuck high to fear
with chilled pain

red of breast
an endless refrain
a tear
who to blame

our fate seared
love wains
together
stained..

a robin appeared
appeared at my window
unbidden
it´s eye bright
fluttered a sweet
wing-sat on the
cacti for low
and high and flew
into the morning
chill but returned
some time on..

are we forever to stuff- say not enough!
our faces like so many
newly born chicks..?
never suffice -
riches endless
bottle of scent..!
our souls
gone west..
?

are we for ever to stand
in the playground
pointing our salt and vinegar
finger

crying teacher..!
our lame fury vent
-hoping no-one will
notice our

***** little secret..?

how thick does the skin
need  to be?
(how long a piece of
string..!)

if a sin,
self-immolation-
then, for why
the fingers point..
(ing)..?

do the bunny rabbits
shine!?
oh,like the sun
knowing and in
ignorance..ah..

their very look
fine
up and down
smiling and laugh..
la!

what do we want!?
nada..!
like the air
and wine
it is free just to
be..
like beer and pitza...
