At the old Den.

Poetry - Economically Inactive By Jim Higo

I don't need Tony Blair to help me,
I don't want a new deal.

I'm not a slob.

Rotten, stinking but irresistible,
Hemlock disguised as nectar,

Four eyes on the sky say a prayer to the dealer

Poetry - The Joy of Filth and Squalor By Space Tart

They say that cleaning's the new rock 'n' roll,
You can scrub your way into a man's soul.

Telling stories in the morning, living mouth to hand to mouth.
