BUZZ

life in the late sixties
was a giant neon light

buzzzzzz buzzzzzz

buzz buzz
the purple hearts
buzz buzz
the black bombs

buzz buzz
the yellow dexies

buzz buzz
the acid trips

buzz buzz
the marijuana

buzz buzz
the mandrax pipes

now, some twenty years on
buzz buzz
my son threatens to sue me for
sperm cell abuse

(thank God we ain’t living
in america!)
