      November 21, 2014Fucking the GapT.L. Burns

      I heard about this bloke,
      Who used to put his dick in a
      Sandwich bag,
      And squirt a load of Vaseline
      In.
      He’d then mush it all around
      His dick,
      Before proceeding to get down
      On his knees,
      After which
      He’d lift up the mattress, stick
      His dick-bag in,
      And then fuck the gap between
      It and the bed.
      I’m not sure if he was crazy or
      A genius,
      The gap between the two is slim.
      About the same width of the gap
      He fucked,
      I guess.

      “‘When I see a couple of kids/ and guess he’s fucking her and she’s/ taking pills or wearing a diaphragm/ I know this is paradise/ everyone old has dreamed of all their lives …’ When I first read those opening lines from Philip Larkin’s ‘High Windows’ many years ago, I knew I too wanted to be a poet. Where else could one talk about a diaphragm and paradise in the same sentence and make it sound so beautiful?”
