(used to) make love on xmas
it is our first creature
th joy & pain of everyday life
you cannot chose yr family
or who stands before you
backbeat sad &
when th fight anthems
blow in our heads
and blow & blow
til th enemies face is red
w/ blood and hardly
proud
stand we
wonder space of mind
listening to th peace of time
or walking back from th game
at th pub
in our brothers
& our family
is stumble grace
it is xmas –
winter flowers & cheese logs
to make
th trauma fashionable
times of man
this season
& again
can’t be
years
ago
baby jesus
& this train -
for grandma
we go a lookin’
th joy & pain of everyday life
you cannot chose yr family
or who stands before you

proud
