So clumsy you will gasp...
How do I write about the love thingy?
You know it, all know it
Blaise P. said you collect moments
Don't know the past at all
Something like that anyway.
I do collect moments, keep a store of them: shards
Polished like coins let's say
From adoration past still present
Near and far
I hoard
For the piggy bank which stands head
Over heels commonly called
A heart
Collector's pieces
I like to think
Nickkkk click on the pebble beach is one
Undressing for the waves near Scarborough
"I must be mad, so cold as that, hold it"
Handing me h.. watch
Click clock over pebble and sand
Asking me to watch
Knowing I watch, watch, watch
Dazed by the sun that blinds the first time
It shone as old as ever, old sun
Of course he did
Another time: Ju.....
Her eyes rising
To meet mine, "I wondered who it could be, oh ha, you
Yup but I'm not surprised -stay with me
Drink wine."
Words turned to mine
Fingers I think will rhyme
For popular songs; then An..... Other...
Careering through my snughole
Complaining of dust, too many pages, too much age
Too much smother
"What do you read Schiller for?
You'll thrill more wisdom from my body
Than in all this philosophy of yours
Than in all this paste and pages,
Next time I'll bring a hoover!"
Reckless of my furniture she rages
As young as a greengage
Preening herself, only knickers and necklace
On her rompytomp trying to impress
And she does, the born success;
Or Irmmm firmly dressed in her ring of light
Ignoring me but conscious of me
Watching, aware that I am here and now
Drinking happiness out of the air around her
She unheeding, and unneeding entirely pouring tea.
That is how I write about the lovethingy you see
Badly, very badly, in fact so clumsily
You'll gasp
Hardly the way
the star-bound sing.
You know it, all know it
