Disturbing Diagnosis
We three
are a triangle –
me
where I'm going
and
you
~ ~ ~
They use their fists
to stop you
being you
and you'll get by
as someone else
not knowing it
until one day
you remember

60s Surfer
Washed up like a 60s surfer
dirty beach, dead logs, flotsam
you dig out your Chuck Berry
I play Jeff Beck on headphones
that cost more than an iPod
You are an imagination
a caller from tomorrow
and I run a hospital
I'm glad you're here
I know, considering the way these things work,
all this would be impossible if I wasn't
but sometimes I speak for my own benefit
