lily chats with the cracked
actors-is your life finding out
who you are?

from abused urchin to glittering
star..there are so many..and as for
the wars..

the stories..we would **** ourselves
but we are worried the silver screen
broken on the wheel..

i)

she wakes and says eeyore
has lost his tail though blissfully
unaware

she has a cornflake stuck to her
cheek above her  lip
which of course is libertine-

though blissfully unaware
clever rabbit is unaware and scholarly
owl too..

so they look and pooh calls
at owl´s house and pulling the bell-rope
thinks he´s seen it some-place before..?

owl says he found it over a bush
and through and after endless conjecture
it´s current use..

pooh sees what it is-an empty mind
is valuable for finding pearls and tails
a clear mind hears the birds singing..

so, pooh returns the tail to eeyore
and he feels much better..
(there he is pictured doing a handstand..)

ii

tao a philosophy which became
a religion..music is the space between
the notes..

said debussy-a man who knows
living in harmony with nature
a simple cure..

i

hitting on last night´s wine
the book falls from her hand
what is she reading?

she says,the more it snows,
it goes on,
the more it goes on snowing..

her head like a magic wand
sleeps on the table..
her knuckles scrape the lino..

ii

carrying on the theme of accumulation
positive begets positive
when roo swims in the dangerous whirlpool

to save a life-
eeyore dips his tail but too late-!
pooh, finds a stick (because it was there)

thoughtless action it´s reward..
a cake and a *** of honey
the donkey hestitates..

di nada di nada
and perhaps that is true
our day to day behavior
eventually accrues

and becomes what we are..
but surprise like oo
when we glance in the mirror
like something new..

a whistle  on the auntie
mable-ryhming slang-an epistle
on the table..dear lily..

nothing to say today
lily nothing new but
power in the darkness
and i love you..

nothing to do but sweep
the floor and true
stars above-stars below
i love you..

nothing but to fly
the magic sky through
turn lead to gold and
i love you..

di nada di nada
but love will accrue
blue and red and i
i love you..c..

if we don´t pay our musicians
and artists then we´ll end up
with a load of has-beens and
glorified karaokes´..

(o dear, lily has donned her hat
of controversy..)she says she is
feeling nutritionally-challenged-
hungry..

what is for breakfast?(i recall
baked-beans on toast
over an open fire..in the olive grove
a car seat our pride and joy..)
