FRAGMENTS of life is all we have
Crazy-Paving Yellowbrick-Shithouse
Road to Nowhere Everywhere
Shining crock of golden shit
Fools no-one
Everyone loves it.

With the lepers I danced ’till dawn
And cleansed again …
We were reborn

Today I walked
Where men looked like trees
And the trees were more alive
Than them.

I will go, I will go
When the fighting is over
To the land over sea
Where I learned to be a soldier
