A hole that can't be filled

In the long and venerable tradition of white Englishmen doing reggae... a little messing around, dear Liza.

There Was A Little Girl...

There Was a Little Girl by The Piper Machine

ONE NIGHT STAND - a new poem

By me.

Dedicated to... sorry what's your name again darling?

EDIT:

I've been a bit unsure about this one since I published it. I think, in fact, it's a lot closer to 'Poetry' than anything else I've done. And it might work on the page better than in your ears... Here it is in print and voice.

Your clooves are hot and hairy

Your eyes are black with lice.

Your brain is a wheel that's spun,

Run by infernal mice.

Your teeth bear stains of gnashing,

Your arse has a gravity that sucks in all sight;

All is occluded, nothing burns bright -

Except that vicious silken wiggle, painful delight.

Your hips fling flame as you walk;

Your lips drip pain as you talk.

Shame. Shame. Shame. Can I?

Can I good cop/bad cop you?

I over-rule all your objections.

And though you 'Aye' and you 'Nay',

You also whinny, growl, purr and Hey!

Baby. Let's make haaaaay!

......................

I sing the Magnificent Song of Your Boobs,

As they slip and they slide and run free.

You have a diamond as big as the Ritz on your clit

O! Wiggle it closer to me...

The ode in your arse, the prayer of your hips,

The full-throated roar of your shell;

Your Catholic Voodoo Norse epic ellipsis -

I'll plunge dark in your void, damn your hell!

Let me see your mystic dancing

Rockin' rollin' gnostic heresy.

Tattoo a cross and singe my soles,

Prick my doll, burn my wicker, chop my tree!

Tick Tock Tick Tock, I've got a massive clock.
And it's beating just for you.

Ding dong! You're not wrong!

And don't worry! I'll show you how I WOOOO!

Your mouth wraps well 'round my phallindromes;

You like it long and hard from both ends.

Will you Onomatopeia on my face? (splosh!) Do!

Come from your depths, decompress my bends.

Now that Wilhelm Reich - what a guy!

He'd burst his fat orgone right into your eye.

Should I bust my nutty nut all over your fizzog?

Funk like Slick Rick, or Snoop Doggy Dogg?

I la-di-da-di - and I love to party,

In your top-shelf top-notch top-hole.

I wax off and wax on with tremendous aplomb;

If you don't like my engine don't shovel my coal!

Yes! I am the Nigerian Pope of Trash - and I will beatify your gnash

Is there a part of you I haven't touched yet?

Did you know I've been raped by none other than the Sun?

Yes, alright, I'm a sexual surrealist dandy magician hypnotist cheeseball with an apocalyptic streak.

But - I know how to fuck.

SO. You smash my head against the head of your bed.

And, as I ejaculate in your cunt, I grunt.

ONE NIGHT STAND (not safe for work or the delicate) by The Piper Machine

Smile

My voice (speaking hypnotic filth) as seen through the medium of a very pretty girl's face. This is a truncated version of a film by a great friend and extremely talented artist Lisa Rovner. She has an exhibition in New York very soon.

Apparently I got a much better reaction than Martin Luther King...

Well, I've seen some Things in my thyme

Some music I've been listening to. There's no THEME as such, but my 30th birthday is approaching, so if it pleases you then interpret these songs as aspects of my current mind. Hey, I ain't no Sigmund Freud. And it's true, I do have some things on my mind. Bring on 40!

For Blondes Who Are Really Blondes

A Dirty Song? by The Piper Machine




By Herbert Farjeon. Not sure what it's called though. I found it in Rationale of the Dirty Joke: An Analysis of Sexual Humour by Gershon Legman. Incredibly highly recommended.

Tarot sketch

Tarot interpretations as a 3D animation. The various prescribed words (or ideas? images? sentiments? intuitions?) associated with a card delineate the outline, a Venn diagram set, somewhere within which lies roughly the truth we are seeking. But the definition is no particular word - the ambiguous space requires the flexibility of imagination, the possibility or potential of several perhaps contradictory meanings.
It in fact exists somewhere along a 3rd axis, the circle extruded along it into the murky subconscious. "The answer lies somewhere or perhaps everywhere in the mass of the cone..."

Similar cones are illuminated from each of the five cards, sliding and stretching through the smoky darkness, like the beams of searchlights. They eventually intersect, to form a small bright gemstone, colours irridescing and pulsing across its five main faces.
But it is the face opposite the middle card, the synthesis, which shines strongest, enough to throw a new beam of holy light, powerful insight, sharp and clear, direct to a point, from the forehead (the third eye, of course).

By this means, the tarot reader locates the meaning of the cards, and understands it. The location - the intersection of the possibilities of all the cards - is also the meaning. The location is only a metaphor in this demonstration - but the meaning is all metaphor as well. This is how metaphor works, this is how tarot works, this is how the world works.
