Bad banana

Produce my banana from the bag

It’s going bad, skin’s bistered 

Yellow as the fire on you I wouldn’t piss out

If there’s a practical joke I never miss out

Mischance’s prince, Stillorgan’s disorder

Lord of local misrule, east coast exhorder

Too soft to shove up my ass

Over my shoulder cast, passing back

It lands on the path like I ordered it from Acme

Lot’s wife checking every ten seconds 

Waiting for someone to get succoured, then wrecked

Scuttle across the peel, scuffle with gravity, then decked

Leave a hole in your head, brain can be checked without surgery

Trepanned in sixty seconds, quicker than a Japanese train

Quicker than a hungry merchant along the new trades

An old man shaking with age, let me rattle his chain

Hope he didn’t recently change the will, it’s fate

Not deranged but arranging my kicks

If I post a murking, a million more clicks

So long suckers, put pressure on an Andrex square stymy the bleeding.


I’m collecting ritual rudiments

Compiling a map of arcane sites using Dúchas

You’re on set tracks, there and back, Luas tram

I’m a pathless butterfly in flight, suas suas suas

Dancing after we ate, I could be pregnant eight months

No orchestrating, kettles boiling and settling toilet chains

We imagine ourselves flameclothed in Versailles

Everyone fixed to our minuet

Sashay into the room, human sugar sweet as a bear toward thunders.
