Let – Written June 2008 (Aged 33)

Let

so the bitch wants to bring me down
let the bitch strut,
let her face form a frown

so the holy mistress wants to serve some time
let me add something,
let me find the state of her mind

so the bitch wants to bring me down
with white hot teeth,
let me unhinge he,
let me end it in my sleep

i see no reason why this creature –
should feature in my life
so the bitch wants me to strut and then fight
in a room of a thousand bulbs
she is the one that never lights

James Garratt – June 2008
