MY THERAPIST DISAGREES

if ignorance is bliss
then my assumption
that
the
gormless grinning masses
know nothing
of their land & plight
is correct

my therapist disagrees
but i seen him
in his quarter-zip m&s knitwear

out there

with the al fresco tossers
smiling at their frappuccinos
in the streetside city exhaust

just another 

poundshop dalai lama

throwing code words

at the encroaching dark

  

NIGHT WORK MINIPOPS

i shop at night

i shop on the go 

everything slipping from hangers

its a jumble jag

~

tracky bottoms 

forest green
piping like icing

canned cocktails ( m&s ) 

sarnies weigh a kilo

~

pockets sucked 

but

balls were free

in the double dawn
night shift ennui
