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 sender no subject 
No quid pro quote 

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 narnia fake lampposts
It would be better for them 
To have stability 
We're not gonna drown 
In the whirlpool of 
Vitriol 
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 stood and remaining 
The quick and the dead.
