LCD

the under ones are flabby

in the head as well

thrown to thought

and lust as others

let's not mention BMI

they are always seeping through

they keep the streets in traffic

they have been known to vote

and hang by the neck

until there are more

bring us to a better world

their crimes are as the rest

each with the identical cross

the unidentified remains

their hearts are just as full as ours

they've got it wrong as well

as much

they're always looking up

once you could smell them a mile away

and retch

and smell their betters too

just as whiffy but

how was it we came to believe in them?

how did that habit slough?

we stood to attention for them once

glimpsed through the dark glass

if they were in their cups

sine qua non so we salute

they were the cenotaph

the under ones

love handled

when they climb on top

be blissed

lay back

relax

they are the puddle stain of coitus

that's a country in the crutch

they too have read a way to here

and must have dreamt themselves

they love their children just as much

sometimes you will hear them sing

and have a radio for that

their struggles for balance

through generations

how other-like

fuzzy upstairs

it's dimlit

the masses

come up on scans

and have to be watched

the doctor says

slip in among them for a crowd

of birthday bliss

at the casino

they're the full candle scammed

and Christmas will be one of theirs

industry is all the creatures

how they must miscegenate!

do you consider their aches less

or their griefs less telling?

aren't they a question hung?

whom clocks have dazzled

to meal, bath, bed

they are the long apprentices

of light

we sell to them

they whistle up our arguments

we bring the evidence required

what if we were them

or they were us?

scratch that

we're the favourites

they're the life unpacked

even if they're of a mind

go like the clappers

till out of steam

it's with their own thoughts they steady

there's no behind the scenes

though they invent intrigue

the extras

airbrushed

most difficult of customers

bite

and still agreement nods in them

a far far better thing they do

if anything they're too well washed
