this is just a tragic rut
but now,
we know this country is morally bankrupt

limp through the race

parts of all of us
feel so confused

by your face as dark as the night

out of here
out of reach
on paradise beautiful beach
out of here
no callback telephones

and know you have seen your friends
Dyslexic Imagination – Thursday 21st November 1996
i find it hard to think
with a sense of logic,
thought my thoughts can be calculated
the world that i imagine
is where i appear to be situated
