Can You – Written Saturday 19th November 1994 (Aged 19)

Can You

can you remember
anything at all
being a fool
growing in pain
it is so strange
i could tell you
about everything
would it mean anything
tell me lady, is it true
can you remember
reading books –
by roald dahl
watching jackanory
on your remote control t.v.
tell me a story
tell me about you and me
now is the time
to listen what is said
now is the time to be alive
and not the time to be dead




James Garratt – Saturday 19th November 1994
