Do You Want To Know These Bones? – Written May 2010 (Aged 35)

Do You Want To Know These Bones?

do you want to know these bones?
where do you think these bones have been?
have you ever thought about these bones?
have you ever wondered,
if these bones could swim in your pool?
did you even know,
how much these bones hated school?
do you even know,
that these bones shone with false light
under village lamposts
do you want to find thee bones?
do you want to know what these bones think?
take the pile,
take me for a drink
where do you think these bones have been?
they did not dance to anthems on their own
these bones have been well and truly loved
but rarely if every, truly alone




James Garratt – May 2010
