Who was Lady Greensleeves
That lived so long ago?
I've asked, but no-one knows
The lovely Lady Greensleaves.

God once put a secret
Between my toe & thumb
Between my toe & thumb
God once put a secret.

My whores love their chocolates
I feed them one by one
In ecstacy cosmic & design
They even forget their Bard.

Everywhere circles are harmonious
They close around me one by one
My groin trembles, and warns
You are still alive Old Man.

I push into her with my wet snout
Mine & man's best friend
I beat & batter & multiply
Then stop, and purr content.

This angel, this child of my heart
This sleep, this little piglet squirming free
This cinder, this volcanic ash growning with weight
This hair, this mirage, this yahonk & spirit cry
This stretcher bed, this perishable rainwater
This kinder's voice whispering "Grandpa!"
This shovel, this boot, this stick
This viewfinder, this cistern pump
This gray cow lying down asleep
This lovemaking, this shivering harmonic
This kissing-knot, this snow ghost in the morning light
This shine, this eclipse, this sparkling heaven & earth
This laughter, this country music of yesteryear
This speckled brown egg, this dowser's splash
This shower of gold, this roadside, this lake
The metal-hull board, this cold gravestone, this hard earth
This blubber, this chainsmoke, this clench
This king & queen
This England.

The Arch & the Leash
The Archibald!

The Men & the Dell
The Happy Cat!

The Bed & the Flowers
The Lead Wig!

The At Sign & the Lass
The Jim Bean!

Time so near
Who can fear
Words so clear
Drink a beer
Shed a tear
Call me queer
I'm King Lear
Who will hear
Black man leer
Pinch a deer?
