No sender no subject

No sender no subject 

There's nothing between us
Nothing disgusting 
Nothing untoward 
No flirting 
No blurting 
No spurting 
No hurting 
No getting in the bath
And masturbating
Not the sum of a bus stop 
Or the hum of a bird 
Not the thrum of a buzzcock
Or a plumb of absurd 
Wordy rhetoric 
Seductive and seedy 
The get you to bed trick 
Reductive and weedy 

No sender no subject 
No no 
No forfender no object 
No no 

Some people never change 
It would be better if they did 
Some people vacillate 
Between different planes
Of gravy on toast 
Bashing their brains 
On a narnia fake lamppost 
It would be better for them 
To have stability 
Like ancient civilizations
And the ineluctable coruscation of synthetic translucence emanating from the phosphorescent glimmer of soft moonlight on rolling waves 
We're not gonna drown 
In the whirlpool of 
W a t e r 
Between their ignorance 
And their need 
To assert themselves 
In word and in deed 
In sickness and in health 
After all's done and said 
Over the stood and remaining 
The quick and the dead
They don't know the difference between evil and virtue 
Like you and I do 

No sender no subject 
No no 
No forfender no object 
No no 

Yeah.
