It was not silent on Friday
afternoons. rhythms business
long dead poets we're
unaware of, metered verse
rules of air and the words
ward robe tables chair
one two point O five
contain no meaning - - - - -
--- s/he read --
there is a cow in a field
the machine is out of order
- and many more there
wished for truth but not
evidence deconstructed
asleep upon the pages
Plato's shadow in the cave
on cow hide time forgot
Socrates to feign towering
a simple mountain grace
that knows a part the wolf
purer than a meadow fat
lamb hung simply above
the shepherd following, Bob
Sloppy Bob the penisless
poet suckling an elegy,
cold brief nymph eye cast
an epitaph to the man, bob
reposing in poetic pose,
pert bestrode the thinker
clutching drafts, supping tea
sat on his arse, havin a larf
Sloppy Bob, poet in residence
of the phone box just outside
thought he knew it all, thank
you Bob, who knew his part
pasturing Ulysses, you feign --
not, knew the shores from Ez
to Bernie's flight to freedom
full time failure, in the mob
fintan, bradán feasa - boyhood
deeds of Fionn, knowledge,
crane bags ancient hags
and the hawk of Achill
swirls above the sod.

. my deepest dearest darling Bob, admit it, you fancied me on Friday
afternoons, hot Bob was for poetry with mags spread out across the dest that
day we drank too much, at the workshop with R flittin as a god, Ogma he was
Bob, drugged us, chained us up, mags incantin magic spells, shapeshiftin
into whistles and wells of hot action, adult talk, it all got too much after
the second glass of port and LSD wannit Bob, hey, hey, that friday when it
all went bonkers...s/he bonkin all of us, the whole short story, tawdry
class, i blackmailed you for ten large, do you remeber Bob, still bear the
scars of the dominatrix, how could you, a monk of the mountain breath, an
objectivist and when we terminated at the gates of langers, spankins, all
that jazz, s/he blew daddio, Mairead burnin in velcro and a bed pan, just
bar me out or i'll stick me head in the oven - i'm not messin, i'm not effin
messin Bob -- i've just got took on at Super Macs, so it wasn't a waste Bob,
Sloppy was the first, he came right after the Bob that did the skit and for
which you paid me, god i wanna get behind the counter flippin that dead
cow...a degree in writing studies pal, hey, hey, yeah mate, don't do it, end
up in a bedsit in Kilmainham speaking of Empedocles and sdackin all the
toffe nosed tossers, pissin oneself laughin, for the gang who claimed me,
the moment we met and fell in love as i bored you Bob, tryin to escape the
attention of the nuttter goin mad, well thank you very much, please can i
have my money back, which i never paid, coz i'm just a daft plassie, a
pretend paddy, but guess what, O'Leary, O'Reilly, O'Hare and O'Hara, theres
