Always good to get back to my birth city , with its dazzling variety of lives, each one bang at the astronomical centre of their own universe.

that no man could measure,

If kitty cats liked roastbeef bones,
And doggies sipped up milk;
If elephants walked round the town
All dressed in purest silk;
If robins went out coasting,
They slid down crying whee,
If all this happened to be true,
Then where would people be?

WHO FLOGGED THE BIBLE
When he lies, he speaks
his native language
for he is a liar
and the father of lies.

Everyone should have one
dark hub for the dull day’s orbit:
stoneshouldered wings
where you bury the bones
of belief, and the redfaced sun,
to gain entrance, turns
a skeleton key.
