Pizza after the play

Rise from greener like a Phoenix

Performance tonight in the Helix

Dad’s got a tape of the play, slán a rang a sé

I wasn’t born in the eighties

You were born to ape me, hand open almoner 

Slice haeped with bacon, oil from Naples

Like a saint’s blood, every bite delightful

It turns me turn to a myroblyte

Boss comes over, tough Brooklyn Jew

Wants his due and he’s owed it, his tin too

He attends me, attentive and intentional

He asks do I like it, he’s not tense at all, superb confidence

My reply: do I?

He asks yeah, do you?

My tongue like a lunar rover, dunes white as cliffs of Dover

Steep as the climbs of Moher my crescendo, hadean descent

Realm of the mantis into which I make grand katabasis

See you after alas down here ages count differently, Tír na nÓg infamy.
