I love the times you call me a cunt

Though some might think it an affront

But I still bliss in knowing this:

Behind each cunt word is a kiss,

Each savage swearword hides a song

Of love to tell me I belong

 

Belong to the beautiful team called Us

Where there’s not disharmonious fuss

But realisation, and the fact

That our encounter was an act

Made in heaven, or something like

Where love’s in power and hate’s on strike

 

So, darling darling it’s no stunt

Nor are you being unfairly blunt

When you say (I love it) “cunt”

Scottish Theatres

I was to play Claudius the king

A National star the errant Dane,

Film star to be, and no plain Jane...

Hair Wash

I looked in, saw you washing your hair,

Kneeling, turning head side to side

To catch the shower jets...
