word jam : a mouth full of remorse



the stars are playing hide and seek 
in the clouds  

to work is to sell out 
i can get away with it 
bit like Gary McKinnon

people sitting on the desks in the office 
looking out of a dirty window 

n i been in all kinds of religious cults as well 
chasing spirits and symbols about 
ducking under signs , 
kicking over cones
speaking in tongues 

while I'm chatting to my ex boyfriends 
my partner is getting neglected 

finding him requires some effort

n i was always a gormless geek 
with no instant quips 

ha ha 
do you remember 
when we went camping 
we made such a mess 
people said we were a health hazard ! 

you got lost
n reappeared on a bus

but he was so sharp 
n he always knew what i was feeling  
even before i knew it 

how could something so brilliant 
turn so violent ? 

biting my fingers
till i howled like an old man 

and i put him 
in a neck collar 
n this is romance 

n broke his finger 
felt like a murderer
eating a fast food breakfast 
on the way back 
to my lonely den 
a mouth full of remorse
