World soaking through, dreaming, failing loving
Purpose straying, hope betraying
Angering so-over joying
Happiness, pleasing.
Agonising, pretending, water off duck’s back
Getting over, moving on
Money powering, laughter healing
Silly, stupid-ing: toads of Toad Hall.
So are you and you are so, sowing your family—even your mother
Sorry, not my mother of course
Hoping for saning insanity: nihilism in fact…
What else is there?
You! The one birthing, always birthing
Gauntlet throwing-down
Pregnant mother-giving-birth-centre stage
Star, animals, baby-watching-family.
Street-people-soaking
Dreaming hope-love-joy
‘If this doesn’t matter, nothing matters!’
