TV & CLOTHES, TWO POPLINGS

 


CLOTHES FUG / BRAIN FART


is anyone else
out there
sometimes

when resting
&
stretched out across town

trying hard to remember
without cheating & looking

what the hell 
youre wearing today ?

the horror of war

instead reminded me 
of a story
in boys own 
or the hotspur

i beg you come & see Come & See
