Chasing The Things I Collect

Chasing The Things I Collect

old clothes
new thoughts
a speciality in design
of things i bought
i am a collector of things
old clothes
my childhood dreams
i have been giving alot lately
more than i have given for a long time
but i have been doing fine
i wish i could save you
like they do in the comics
but i am not a superhero
i am not into tight fitting clothes
i am just a collector
nice times, old jokes
i am a dejected child at times
when i am out at night
crossing the devonshire and cornish lines
i get dejected in the morning
because it is not cooling
drinking is fine when it is with friends
i cannot afford to do too much
but then i am in luck
i am collecting everything
and it is never too much

James Garratt – July 1995
