A Sickening

It's Detachment,
Bearing Weights,
And Empty Chairs,
Being Mention In Repeated Prayers.

Summer Snow/What Mercy Killing?


-Her-

Don't Make Sense.
It's A Bank Holiday Weekend.
Brian Friel's Niece


Mark Her, Mark Me,
Mark Charlie Too But I'm No Christ
And Neither Is He


'Footfalls, Hangovers...'
It's Just The Bad Machinery
Of The Night


-You-

It's All 'Dodge'
You Taught Me That Word
I've Used It Twice


When Crucifixed
'I Have Something To Tell You'
And Its Never Good


'Remember...'
Remember What I Said About History?
Forget It

Hacksaw/The Only Indian In The Discoteck

'Shit'
The Wise Man Said 'You Can't Beat History'
Full Stops And All, Whatever That Means
Shouting It At One Of Those Glittery Indians
'Jesus, Remember I Like Birds Too'

And Maybe More If The Bouncers Would Let Me
But It's Corinthians And Workman's Who
Keep Asking 'Have I Ever Teased A Cock'
Or Renewed The Gum They've Chewed

I'm Asking Punjab Here 'Where You From Originally'
Or Basically Because We All Brood Here
Feeling Wrong Loving Hawks, Saints And Nepal
'Your Quotes Are Lyric To A Katy Perry Song
Full Stops And All'
Shit.

Melt Me With The Snow/My Name Is Not Charlie

She Said 'Oh, That's A Question Mark'
Lines And Fucking On The Sink
She Leaves A Breathmark On The Mirror
And Writes 'I Make It Snow Sometimes'

Rory Was Something That Following Spring
But Found Her Footfalls At My Feet
Remembering We Joked About Leftovers
After Licking The Plate Clean

He Said 'Oh, That's An Exclamation Mark'
The Difference Rory Said To Me
Is Feeling It Now And Tomorrow Crying
'Melt Mark, Melt With The Snow And Me'

My W.W.

My Dad Is A Good Drunk Driver
So We Never Leave Lights On

Whispering To Door Jams
About Toast On The Ceiling
And A Pizza On The Roof

A Lasting Fumble Of A Lighter
And A Missing Dog Out On The Lawn

Shouting Quiet As He Can
'I'm A Man Of Faith Healing'
Burnt Collars Are The Proof
