he´s a man without contours
a man of just corners
no fluidity
just knots of barbed wire
is this because of some great injustice
wreaked upon him ?
no
it´s just george´s way of expressing
himself
of dramatising his little problems
yapping and giving out little cries
george suffers from absence
george is not there when he is here
when recalled, when one insists that he
turn up,
a maudlin prisoner shuffles up
or an old queen in a pique pouting
petrified in painted styles
george misses his mummy
but that´s so many long years back now
lord have mercy on george
lord grant that he may take himself up
