My hero wears lycra

I’m taken a back – don’t you try... gimme a holiday
Quit quoting lyrics pull yourself towards summin' constructive
Kill a dream
Inhale
One sunken cheek
What time exactly is the next supposed to arrive?
Let it go
Succumb
Exhale
So sweet man
My heart’s a poundin' and I love it
Blow me away when you don’t try
GO!
drive me there
we both know they won't
bomb it up
suck it in
NO!
Oh Lee-Ann.

my apologies

regroup focus sit upright in bed
it’s a good wine no sulphur I just heard he’s dead
five tears a question glue in my head
next week I’ll go platinum the ultimatum god knows his heart feels like lead
three minute intervals no one wants the flat
you know what I’ve always wanted as a pet?
a bat.
six season splurges
how will I get this glue outa my head?
please heal the burn on my ring finger
so I can sit upright in my bed

you'll be better off

Shooo bi doo wop doo wa
Almost like someone’s sitting on my lap
Ah life
She’s left
He blew a kiss out the window
in traffic close to
three months ago and she
likened the sensation
to when
your cheek first melts into a field of clover

Shooo bi doo wop doo wa
Wrote a letter with my pinky today
blew that chance
just like the kiss
out
onto Putney bridge
away

what she is and what she ain't

so sassy so so sassy such sweet sassy silver soled shoes could you ask me again when I’m not wearing my sweet sassy silver soled shoes?

da

What is she? now that it’s come down to a quote.
One silver wreath
she’ll keep it for good luck.

“I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it” Bob Dylan.

they wear their shame on their sleeves

Stik stik donker
jet black bitter breath
2nd last of
save that call
delight them with your charming ways
retro posters
one day
one heartbreak
we cried
that james dean t-shirt
you still have no idea

that part never goes right...

Sit down beside me oh sweet only one
I’ve crawled across this town with only one shoe on
Half a knee bruised
Calm down
Let’s stare at the ocean and feel less than some
Let’s share our emotions and benefit none
Reap the fruits of your labour and tell no one
Sit down
Beside me
My darling young one.

Spring drie keer na regs
Knyp een oog toe
Gaan donnerdag uit
en vergeet hoe om te sĂȘ ‘hoe?’
