My boys
Who knew such joy before they were born
Who knew the joy they'd bring
As an only child no knowledge of this sibling thing
But life with my two boys became my greatest experience

I wish you’d join me
You never know what you might see.
A thousand fountains – a million forms of ecstasy
A trillion ways to make your brain cells dance
But you won’t even try, your pupils are too blind
I’ll speak to

Hellections

Hellections
Hellections are coming,
it won't be very long,
before our politicians try
to persuade us with their songs.
A time of tension for them
an irritant for so many,
with all those party broadcasts,
we might wish that there ...
