3. ART PARTY

Although they arrive voluntarily…
I think we are all fixed up now…
Mentally / Literally / Exclusively

…the party’s over and now it’s back to work

Work of hands, soul, heart,
brainpan of man and, more than likely,
the general dispersal of heady lies.

…back at the party, most of us drunk on wine

A room,
full of artists,
although they arrive voluntarily,
roomed, they are a pitch fit race
and different people
and although they arrive voluntarily,
thrown together.

How badly I wanted to roll out the floor mats
for self-righteous tumbling and all the other
not that wise games and tricks.

The chewing of chicken fat,
the humming of mersey beats,
for all that swings,
for all that talks
ROCKS &
rocking is the best way in
and although they arrive voluntarily,
the absolute best way in is out.

The door we came in.
