Just like when I pee
amid splendour. A latrine
seething through nettles.

Never will see red.
Unless the Irish windless
September sunsets.

September sunsets
Perfect; neither summer's heat
Nor winter's sharp chill

A proper haiku
Did you think I could only
Do them in wordplay?

Nor winter's sharp chill
bone matter splatters again

Ever so hungry

the Void and lost us.

The Void and, lost, us
in post-Friday-night stupor.
Going back to bed....
