The Mad Poet Attends His Own FuneralA Poem by Leslie Philiberta comedy
Plastic bagged with pork chops,
littered before a shop, the mad poet fishes his lower jaw. A black snail slimes up the main road, one fat drummer punishes his gutbucket, and the brass band plays not just slightly atonal. Strange stop at traffic lights, churchbells hammering, a van full of disinfectant snakes past, flags drip saints as choirboys in trainers giggle. He was a crazy b*****d, always talking to himself, scribbling on litte bits of paper, looking for his glasses and singing doodedoo as he sat on the toilet.
