for MIDDLESBROUGH MAGIC SHIP 283 (K)

A FUTURE FOCUS
HAVING MOVED ON
Of your secret writings
do I surely know.
"How ?", you may wonder,
but it is so.

I know of the toy
you bought in Amsterdam -
with which you play -
and not a man.

Was it the angels
of which you've heard ?
A fortune-gypsy
or a little bird ?

You could have come
away with me
on big-adventures
far across the seas

or just said "Thanks,
but what you said
to a small adventure
with friends has led."

But you so lacked
a grateful touch,
an excuse now, girl,
should be double-Dutch.

A COCK AND CANDLE
The night was a canvas
on which to bestow
all the lovely colours
of the rainbow
when they made love -
as they lay low -
by a candle's light
until the cock's crow.

AN ADVENTUROUS ROVER ?
Ah yes, young ladies,
back to teaching I am.
I'll return to treat you
over in old Siam.
What a gypsy once said
has become crystal clear.
I was born to roam
upon this wide sphere.
A life of Adventure
sure was the call,
and death, I'll find,
the greatest of all ?

A SHAPE SHIFT
So it is beauty shall pass
from the body before the looking-glass.
Then it's up to the girl try win
from a beauty found deeper within,
if a real beauty so be there
inside a soul she can lay bare.

A NO-WALLS WORLD-ORDER ?
A world without walls
still holds people within.
Would a one-world government
truly be a good thing ?
Where do you go run,
where do you go hide,
if a one-world government
is not on your side ?
