New Diet
I'm trying to go cold turkey
& wean myself off you
It's harder than I ever thought possible
But it's something that I have to do

Not Grimm enough for me
No, I won't be swept off my feet
By a knight in shining armour -
Get carried away from my castle
In a moment of passionate ardour.

Snowshoe vs Flipflop
Goodbye to what was meant to be summer
Now the autumn has really begun
We need no longer freeze
In a sub zero breeze
While dressed for the tropical sun

Summer 2007
I’m not asking for an Indian summer
In September, October – too late...
I wanted my summer with strawberries
And daisies and Pimms
And picnics and sunshine in June
Not with bombs, foot and mouth and monsoons

Soft Focus
I have a supermodel body
No cellulite, no stretchmarks, smooth skin
I am a veritable goddess of perfection
As long as the lights aren’t turned on

Standing under trees in storms
I repeat the mistakes of my past
Never learning what experience should teach me
That theory about lightning not striking twice
Obviously failed to reach me

Castle
Shut out from whatever you’re thinking
Barricaded behind stone walls and stone mind
I don’t know if it’s worth trying to force my way in
To discover there’s nothing to find

Magic
Not cured, not in remission
This isn’t sickness, it’s epilepsy
As long as I keep taking the pills
Then hopefully I’ll stay fit free

Washing Up
The dish sits alone on the worktop
It’s sides are encrusted with food
As I live in the flat
Should I wash it or
Would that
Just be seen as rude?
It wasn’t I who made the dish dirty
(I wash up after my meals)
But flies are now swarming
(Is this due to global warming?)
And it’s putting me in a bad mood.

Second best
You're not the one he wants
But I guess he's making do
Until someone comes along
Who ticks his boxes
Better than you
