Love knows no reason
And Reason knows not love
Early morning, rumpled bed
Taking stock of life
The dawn of an age of reason...
What can be worse than the complete agony of being in love? Yet what could possibly be a more enriching experience? Some of these entries arise out of the euphoria of first love and the rape of innocence; the rest reflect the musings of a more mature poet: one who is compelled to accept the absurdity of the transient world, but has the courage to romance it nevertheless. At times it is not even poetic... too brutal to be so. But therein lay the catharsis: purgation of life’s follies.

POTOMOI AND ALL HIS FRIENDS (aka WHY I LOVE GINGER ALE aka THE NONSENSE SING ALONG SONG)
Potomoi! Whoa! Whoa!
Ink and books and boa
But it’s not easy when you turn me on
Lilly in the valley, goes she
Down the murram road
Pitcher full of ale
Tincan whines Tincan’s woes
Tincan, yes can, goes
Tin can full of ginger ale, he knows
We-we cheeky, We-we drunk
We-we topples on my trunk
Ouch!
Imzy distant, Imzy far
Imzy on a topless car
Imzy on a parcel box with ribbons on the floor
Figgy whimpers, Tony sings
What the heck! O what it brings?
Ridge and Ridgey, there they come…they go
Puffy Ronnie ginger ale
Grapes are sour, grapes are pale
Downpour on the windshield, fresh yet stale
Cosy blanket, treasure trail
Now we triumph, now we fail
O! Will I not won’t I not can I not, Now!
Crazy fat-boy suffers so
Southern sepoy wants to go
It was not to be: she sees the snow
Sunshine, ebony, sugar sweet
What a pain, what a treat
What a time, O, it used to be
Cans and cans and cans of ale
Same old story, same old tale
Enfin.
