FACULTY OF ARTS

Sundays the place belongs to boys and mauger dogs nosing into bins or stoning fruit lifting a leg against the dented chairs marked EDUCATION

Fat girl reciting GNP and LDC Did you leave behind a greasy box of Truth?

SWITCHED TO RECORD IN THE MUSIC ROOM

Four writers (m) A public mostly (f) Letting the quartet tinkle on a theme Careful not to cough or clap before Each thought had drifted

to the floor The poses chinked like Spode A Master briefly bowed -

No-one said THEY PAY ME FOR THE BLOODY STUFF IT WAS MY ONLY LIFELINE IN THAT WARD AND GOD WHAT CRAP IT WAS

Tonight the Muse was fingered (ringlets only please) Until There being still no news of rape Politely folding paper birds We went.
