Out of The Blue
out of the blue from the grey
and into the new
conversation running riot
the chaplain is a dear man,
and he’d rather we be quiet
but this one is mine
it has turned out fine
it fills my mind,
no need for the fishing line
out of the blue
from the shoeless,
to those who have a clue
i do not feel worthless
out of the blue
no shackles and no chains
the chaplain is a dear man,
but they must refrain
for they do not understand
my absolute spiritual gain
James Garratt – Saturday 2nd March 2002
