Granny

© Spike Milligan

Through every nook and every cranny
The wind blew in on poor old Granny
Around her knees, into each ear
(And up nose as well, I fear)

Goodbye S.S.

© Spike Milligan

Go away girl, go away
and let me pack my dreams
Now where did I put those yesteryears

Just lies in bed,

Grace Before Song

© Ezra Pound

Lord God of heaven that with mercy dight
Th'alternate prayer wheel of the night and light
Eternal hath to thee, and in whose sight
Our days as rain drops in the sea surge fall,

From time to time the vigor of his name
Against us like a finger for the shame
And emptiness of what our souls reveal
In books that are as altars where we kneel
To consecrate the flicker, not the flame.

bees, bats, swallowtails,
dragonflies, and great horned owls.

Greens

Lid's on, steam's risin':
collard greens, Lord, bubblin' JAZZ!
That's appetizin'.

Drops dead in sight of the window.
Lovely tribes have just moved to the north.
In the flickering evening the martins grow denser.
Rivers of wings surround us and vast tribulation.

Good Friday 2001, Riding North

Yellow makes a play for green among
the rows of some poor farmer's field outside
the Memphis city limits' northern edge.
A D. J. plays The Day He Wore My Crown,
