What she said:
“How come someone hasn’t noticed
that I’m dead
and decided to bury me
God knows, I’m ready”
What she said was sad
but then, all the rejections she’s had
to pretend to be happy
could only be idiocy
What she said was not for the job or
lover that she never had
What she read
all heady books
she’d sit and prophesise
(it took a tattooed boy from
Birkenhead
to really really open her eyes)
What she said:
“I smoke ‘cos I’m hoping for an
early death
AND I NEED TO CLING TO SOMETHING !”
What she said:
“I smoke ‘cos I’m hoping for an
early death
AND I NEED TO CLING TO SOMETHING !”
