I'm only a daisy
With drooping petals
Some of them brown
torn at the edges
Washed out and jaded
Burnt out and faded
Tired looking and acrid
Like a spat out fag butt
Or a blackened bit of bit off chuddy
(Where I come from
the streets are paved with chewing gum)
the streets are paved with chewing gum)
I came from the thousandth planet
To stand before you naked
damn it
damn it
To blaze with sunshine
Incandescent
Blister with zest
All shimmer and spanking
And the rest
whatever comes next
Jocundity and audaciousness
The temerity to intimate this
Spaciousness
The singularity of my purposeless meaning
The daisy without a ceiling
Who came from planet Burma
To stand bedraggled before her
please please pluck me naked
Liken me to a letter from Norwich
Then I'll wring with starlight and photons
Give myself 40,000 volts of derision
Be laughed at belittled and scorned
And whisper I love you be warned
As my wrinkles get fatter and colder
And the distance between forever and this brownian
daisy
narrows to a whim
I'm dreaming dreaming
Of leaving my mouth my fingers my England
on your cunt
your wetness
Your shattering flower
This is what it's like
To swim in infinity
With Picasso and Virgil
I'm dreaming dreaming dreading
All these terrible beautiful terrible things
This is what it's like
To be in love
When you're a fucking useless
Piece of grass
Thank you father
I never knew myself
Just this rotting
Sway of petals
I only fall in love
with that what I can't have
Guinevere
Sunshine
Sleep
Your blood wet lips.
