Alchemisland

Hard work 

Motivated by spite, right

Covered in spikes like

Lambton worm fight

Flush despite a lazy wife

Mail order bride dead on arrival 

Nobody bored more airholes on time

Surprise exhibition 

Surmise it’s my mission 

When I see a stoic fetching tissues

Coming unglued, feels the blues 

Looking at the work I do 

Power to change a man’s mood, it works

Ten thousand hours, better fucking work

Left bank zines say my shit old, belongs in a museum 

I’m gonna cut their ears off if I see ‘em

Leave you like a Priam 

In the pyre of your Ilium 

Tears welling, sour William 

Striking short at Greeks, stump pinion

Stub out a smoke on you 

Stun you with quickness of moves

Hips like a living snake tattoo 

Two years in state pen, got abused

Two years pen state, degrees for you 

Opportunities for you, blood blue 

Like before it’s oxygenated 

Slow to block 

Octogenarian shouldn’t be boxing 

Rocked him

Commentators talking up my ring generalship

How I command the squared circle 

Moves correspond to square and circle 

Rise to bruises in Tyrian purple 

I’m Empyrean tall, Hercules strong

Cock of the walk, bayonet a man of straw 

Until human gore falls out

Hold my pint like this won’t be long.
