Lamb? What Lamb?

 Superstitions  [thinking about next year] I’ll start the new year with a superstition Under the table, mouth full of grapes, I’ll emerge from my fake womb in a new nihilistic position  Embrace an air of faux optimism Leaving behind the forgotten year’s remembered acts of watered down barbarism I’ll drink to the ghosts of my past juvenile convictions Say my prayers and toast with hollow benedictions The calendar flips and year mirror cruelly won’t lie The same restless angered stranger looks back at me, eyes dead, asking  why?

  Union Jack [an ironic social commentary] British propaganda Union Jacks are all the range! Leftist London type gander Pint of Stella as a rebuttal to an accusation of middle class life- call it a soho short change “I’m a London creative, but not in a cringe way” “I listen to Berlioz ironically and prefer tapas over small plates” “I’m doing London but not in a Skepta, Stormzy, Dave type way” Call me Pete Doherty holed up with a guitar and Milk Models signed girlfriend in my London Camden gaff So what I don’t live pay check to pay check, I still pay Sip orange wine I don’t have time for that  I ❤️ wine  sort of riff raff Cool Britannia, Britannia rules the waves Nationalist chic in a post-brexit, post-BoJo, post-truth time Take pictures of the poppies on World War One soldiers graves The little black boys in trackies are roadmen, it’s not my fault their skin chose a life of crime That’s Daniel, he likes anime and basketball and has dreams of a midlands uni and a simple IT...

  POCKET PUSSY.

  Glass. [gaz's rockin blues] I didn’t reach over the table to glass you A fright of great self restraint I know But as my anger and disbelief grew I didn’t want to be another story embedded between your ex wielding a frying pan and your time in Bordeaux I didn’t slam your face into the wall When I found out you tried it on with my best mate twice at the bar I didn’t say anything at all I live with the fact I know who you are I didn’t shout or flip the table Knowing my silence cut sharper than glass Your actions albit fatal Showed me exactly who you are Who you are can be summarised In a few quick words I should have glassed you at the table But I didn’t feel like being barred from the bar Plus I know you know I know exactly who you are
