Flatland THERAPY
I.
Thirty one birds sit on a line
Two towers stand tall
Now you see it, now you don't!
I'm no rider on a white horse here
Riding out from the clouds
Or who knows where!
Be realistic, nothing special here.
Let go of the toxic strains tendrilling wild
Never fucking said or implied anything, so stop expecting!
Seems you need some medical stimulation, three choices:
Electro, pills or therapy. Six more drops and all's ok.
Oh, she's spitting mad.
Got no more energy for wooing and cooing high-maintenance
Prefer low-budget alternatives.
She calls me the reincarnated king of whirlpools.
II.
Want to lie low. Spent ten years in bed
After a drug-induced major nervous breakdown
Felt so downhearted and alone, asked my pal
Who knew EXACTLY what it meant, straight way!
Sitting at a bar counter, having a hand-rolled ciggie
And a quart of milk stout, I learn happiness is elusive.
Never felt more alone....and cold. So disillusioning.
And I don't wanna be bothered.
I told a complete stranger without a face or identity my innermost secrets
That's not very clever. But, it's no biggie.
I don't seek your sympathy, but I reveal
I feel culpable, because I'm almost cheating on my girl.
My first conquest was Porra, a great lover
But unbearably and madly jealous!
A semi olive-skinned Spaniard, with morning spirit
That's beauty - the kind that attracts me.
Then, Olga was in her twilight, yet felt in the game of life
A couple more weeks of recup and we see what rewards
She had a heart attack, but not yet out of commission
Thanks to the gods for the invention of the electric blanket!
Will she understand if she catches me out?
Don't fear your underhand exploits, psychologist placates
Can't hide my unbearable lust for olive creatures
With my IQ over 150, I am a wicked, discerning german connoisseur.
A mad scientist in a lab, trying to fix my broken dreams
Silently muttering odd spatterings of poetry to himself
Impregnated a young, nubile maid
It's my near-best act, left me with a tiny tot.
The unconditional love of a small child and the special bond
and love you feel for them
and the responsibility you have towards them,
is very important.
III.
Finally. Tedious but strangely therapeutic task completed
Now I stand back and admire the fruits of my labour.
Got a ridiculously full day today, believe it
Must get busy now, must FLY!
Well said, but heart knowledge it should be
Rather than head knowledge.
