I'm not sure if I could top John Lennon on this Good Friday. But if I could sing for him...
Being for the Benefit of Poetry
 
For the benefit of poetry
imagine you, imagine me
on trampoline.
 
The Joneses in their flashy cars
don’t make the stops at topless bars
and miss the scene.
 
Over tea and crumpets, buttered scones,
and lastly through a dog’s head of real time,
I could own Mr. Jones and challenge the world.
 
The celebrated travesty
of topping you to better me
is out of date.
 
The Joneses don’t view trampolines
as springboards to financial means;
they delegate.
 
Missus J and I assure the public
our debate will never be second to one.
And of course, if we get hoarse we’ll dance a waltz!
 
The band begins at ten to ten
I hope we are both drunk by then
and hear the sound
 
of artists in their element
performing their experiments
for common ground.
 
Having spent our days in reparation
catharsis is now guaranteed for all.
And tonight my flee or fight is paying the bill!
