They bought him back from the dead Minton socks we need they said Were running out of plastic things And shiny coloured plastic rings To sell to people every day They need the plastic so they say...
Once, the world was whole and pure, A mystique aura of allure, Without there being FAKE, FAKE, FAKE, When there was give, not TAKE, TAKE, TAKE.
This is poetry. This would go in my Opuss anthology and should be published along with some of your other pieces. One day, you'll need to sign a copy of your book for me ( then I can flog it and buy a curry ... Sorry, I'm a realist too :-))
