Giraffe

Neck braced, long legged
Munching leaves all day instead
Of sandwiches, I Giraffe my life
With half more height than normal
And look over into yours;

I can see a savanna, I can see long rolling plains
With all their cut price seats filled with
Lame prey; antelope feeding on Prada shoes,
Benetton bush babies crazy with dollar haze,
Which one is cheaper?

The chimpanzee that is made in China?
Or the Chinaman made by a chimpanzee?
Banana republics are slippery; held together by the
Skins of their teeth bares signs
Of hardware; Kalashnikovs and tripwire
Mines a pint please,

Last orders are: 10.50 Move to B3
Life is just a chess game of dumb animals,
You are half a monkey
Suits on boys, scratch your balls, have a laugh,
At me; I am Giraffe a
Man, but a hole arsenal of apathy.
