Poetry is the new rock n roll.

Write about a rock star
write about his vices
write about his fall from grace
his mid life crisis
write about a rock star
dress him up in sequins
rock n roll ain't a world
in which Joe Meek wins

Yeah poetry is the new rock n roll
write another poem buddy go buddy go

Write about the cocaine
do a line of cocaine
talk about the cocaine
talk about the cocaine
talk abou... Oh buddy
push the needle on
and write about a rock star
sing it when you're done
sing it to a techno beat
badum badum badum

(guitar solo)

Yeah poetry is the new rock n roll
write another poem buddy go buddy go

Write about a rock star
then kill him when your done
do it with an overdose
or maybe with a gun
but kill that fucking rock star
before he gets too old
that way you'll get to number one
before the bodies cold.

Yeah poetry is the new rock n roll
write another poem buddy go buddy go
sing another poem buddy go buddy go
kill another poem buddy go buddy go

It's all write muse. I'm only dissin' my ho for attention.

Port Eliot.

I will be performing at Port Eliot festival this year. Hope to see you there.

The enjoyable lie.

Lena lied compulsively, even when the truth would be perfectly adequate.

Lena talked in her sleep continuously, Lena told the truth in her sleep.

Lena had great difficulty hanging on to men; her daily deceits nightly exposed.

Until she met Gus.

Gus told the truth compulsively even when a lie was essential

Gus talked in his sleep continuously, Gus lied in his sleep.

Gus had great difficulty hanging on to women, His truth's were far too acute.

Until he met Lena.

During the day Gus would sleep in Lena's studio while she painted.

The white room filled with lies.

During the night Lena would sleep in his room while he wrote.

The black room echoed with honesty.

Each morning and evening they would share an hour or two of wakefulness.

He would tell her: Do not tell me you love me, do not say you will stay forever.

In return she would lie: Do not tell me you love me, do not say you will stay forever.

During these times they made love.

He told her that he loved it when she screamed out: 'No, No No, I am not having an orgasm!

They both enjoyed that lie.
