Sixteenth Century Postman <\/b><\/p>\n

I will lay ye below the cobblestones<\/p>\n

Where I have placed all our love letters<\/p>\n

Future generations will find your bones<\/p>\n

But they will not find me<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Keeble Street <\/b><\/p>\n

Join me at the bar<\/p>\n

For a jar<\/p>\n

Which will not mar<\/p>\n

The day so far<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Margaret Topless <\/b><\/p>\n

Write drivel on my breasts <\/i><\/p>\n

Margaret said to me<\/p>\n

As I wish to exhibit your writings <\/i><\/p>\n

For all the world to see <\/i><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n

Jack 9-2-5<\/b><\/p>\n

ic<\/p>\n

masturbating nuns<\/p>\n

and<\/p>\n

fornicating policemen<\/p>\n

from the train window<\/p>\n

each day<\/p>\n

this dismays me<\/p>\n

as i once loved croydon<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Herbert & Alice <\/b><\/p>\n

Herbert and Alice<\/p>\n

Bore no malice<\/p>\n

Towards the palace<\/p>\n

Until they met Dallas<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Magenta Fuchsia <\/b><\/p>\n

Two friends<\/p>\n

One English<\/p>\n

One American<\/p>\n

Met each other<\/p>\n

At the bus station<\/p>\n

In the<\/p>\n

City of the Caesar\u2019s<\/p>\n

They kissed and hugged<\/p>\n

Three times<\/p>\n

I thought their passion<\/p>\n

To be sapphic<\/p>\n

And considered<\/p>\n

Their journey from Capri<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Capri <\/b><\/p>\n

You run<\/p>\n

Into the sea<\/p>\n

Wearing a black hat and stiletto\u2019s<\/p>\n

And nothing else<\/p>\n

I will join you soon<\/p>\n

In your drunken recreation<\/p>\n

But for the present<\/p>\n

I am awaiting<\/p>\n

The African Bishop<\/p>\n
