I feared it for the glass
lacerating, glimmering in a wan eventide
and all i could see
“uproar”
reforming reflecting pain
and under bow, that fleecing stain
i’m overground, tied to jumping in
“precipice”
i look in the mirror, and what do i see?
well,
i see gardens, a cottage, labrador
cot of goldenrods by the doorway
waiting for appreciation
sharing in their piece of nature
sleeping in your starting stalls will lead you to
pastures built from a hundred violet passions
worth it in the end
Sometimes it's hard to work out where you stand
it can be unrelenting as a day spent in the mentions
measured by all you couldn't be
better stop thinking that way 'cause you're back to batting blunders, babe
I'm thinking that way
you're so far away now
Perfect is moments away
perpetually aglow with flowing promises, pal
saddle up baby duck, you're in for a fully convertible ride
and you're breezing on through
your seclusion isn't cute, hun
your illusion is a wan one, don't cry
you wanted the lie when perfection was tangible
hand me a section of thread now
to bull back the pullback named after a girlfriend
You switched your tune
high time i did so too
who is who in you?
to the glow you owed
flowing oaths in 42
Throw the glow right through the window
when it’s thrown back two can tango
toss it for a 50-yarder
turn your heel, now try a little harder
Back door is locked
tell me, is that what you wanted?
Now the haunt is haunted
honey hold your horses
reins are taut, don’t force it
rains are falling
Sometimes it’s hard to work out where you stand
i know you’ll come through
and it’s true

Subject: What a day!
Julia!
It's really quite a tale, I hardly believe my luck! Ducking into Douglas Street a sign (on a restaurant door, I'd guess from God) caught my eye, I quote: "Opportunity only knocks but once!! So join us at 13:00 on the dot..."
Truly I was dubious but yet glanced down and my sundial said: "12:55, you've really no excuse! So go park your arse in a booth."
The meeting started. The speaker stood up tall. Someone farted; everybody laughed. "Stop that now, friends!" - spoke our knight - "Dontcha know that's our brother?!" - oh brother - "We're a family now and to climb we must all bind together," - togetherness - “so allow me to outline the way we all profit here...”
"[REDACTED]"
Julia, it's like a tonne's been shifted, mondo uplifted, and to think I nearly missed it.
My darling, I truly believe that this is going to be everything we have been looking for. I have found my calling, and life will be different for us now.
All my love,
Cynthia
P.S. I do hope the new job is treating you well. It really is a pity you keep getting fired. How is the office?

cynthia dearest, i write from the printer. it's nearest the bit where the office is clearest. i fear that the manager's peering in fits in this general direction. he's itching to discipline. i had better dash for now, but i’ve some thoughts on your new… opportunity, and i will continue this letter as soon as i can safely steal another moment. now i'm hiding behind the water cooler. hr bitch is near but i can fool her. i'm pretending to be a big potted plant, and i love my gullible lady coz you believed that. but back to the matter at hand and i'm glad that you've had this epiphany fittingly sad as you've been, sat in limbo and faffing with strings as you're fishing for wins in your Weetabix Thins™. though i can't help but feeling the thing that's appealing is a promise too good to be true. you know i adore you and i'll try to support youbut trust is an idiot's game. they say fame can be lonely but so is obscurity. some wish to prey on your dream of security with oaths of community that lack authenticity. it’s cold driven unity. frosty, illusory. cracks under scrutiny. i apologise if this letter comes across as at all sanctimonious cynthia, but all i ask is that you approach the organisation and their bombastic spokesperson with a healthy dose of scepticism. you are a trusting soul, and i love you for it, but this is precisely why it would cause me no end of anguish to see you taken advantage of. yours, julia. p.s. randall from finance tattled and i now face a disciplinary meeting this afternoon. hold me in your thoughts won’t you? lol

Julia,
Never thought you could be crueller than you were tuesday last week. One mouth purrs that you love me for trusting, the other lips spit “naive child, you’re an idiot!”. But that’s all okay 'cause I like it anyway. When you get mean I feel so seen. I mean REALLY seen and not just as a machine.
...But I have my concerns now. It’s like a prophecy fulfilled. I’m still not savvy to the details, but Drucie told me tales of brothers and mothers and best friends and lovers who jealously write off the company as only a scam to be called an adversary.
As for the man who brought me into the fold and flipped our fortunes forever, it's clear that you think him a mountebank, but you are judging a person you have never met. I hope you can bring yourself to be more open-minded. Me and Drucie both agree, we can smell the sea on the turn of his speech, and we call him the Tiller ‘cause he mows down all the fences.
All my love,
Cynthia
P.S. The Tiller taught us about killing our apathy, and manifesting our success through hard graft. Perhaps an attitude like that could help you focus more at work? Just a thought!

cynthia precious, i write under covers. it's past witching hour and, i tell you, the others who share in my brain, god, they won'T FUCKING SHUT IT!!!! ahh they’re quieting down now but i’m sorry that i had to shoutndhnjdhb] i passed out for a moment there, but what i meant to say was cynthia, you never spoke that way until today. my instinct was to comprehend your words as school-girl threat, but part of me is well aware you’re moonstruck and you’ve just not seen it yet. if you need me to be with you i will follow through. the radio’s tuned to spray fm and they’re saying tomorrow looks sunny as hell. well, i think they’re playing our song… maybe it’s not that hard to know you, cynthia. there’s only one way up and one way down. i can’t be convinced to trust this situation cynthia. but i love you. and i want to be with you. and i recognise that i have to let you make this decision. for both of our sakes, i hope i’m wrong. yours, julia. p.s. if it all ends in some kind of blood bath, don’t come crying to me. will i see you at the arcade on friday night?

JULIA!!!
Believer brought hither! The Tiller’s a killer! He slaughtered Drucilla and still he calls thiller! I spied it in secret inspired by you dear......
Julia, I’m obviously joking (who’s gullible now?). So you can stop your endless croaking (you’re just one of the crowd). You’re too cynical and now I’m realising that for you that’s typical (I’ve got no more love to go around). Drucie says all romance has an ending, and Julia, I think that time has come for us. I can’t be with someone who’s not willing to be a part of my new world. Tolerance isn’t enough. Kimberley was right when she said there’s only one way up and one way down. But there’s only one direction I’m headed. With or without you.
I’ll miss you.
Cynthia
P.S. Say goodbye to everyone from me, will you? I can’t do it myself. It’s too much.

Subject: hi
cynthia 👋 i bet you were surprised by my insignia. i know it’s been a while since i’ve been near to ya, but you were right about some things, and the setting sun is plunging into ripples on the lake. i see roads i didn’t take. now the summer’s coming back around and the days begin to snake downtown and the ships are running right aground and the hellish seller suits abound and the boss is shouting “jules, pipe down!” and i miss you like the deserts miss the rain. and i think i need a quick lie down... p.s.
I’ll love you until the last syllable
‘til silvery screens are shooting us dead
i’ve seen what this balance can do to a person
it hurts to be [REDACTED]
but all slips aside when it’s you on the line
so i dial, and i die when the tone tapers dry
should i take what i’m inclined to think
as subject to sing? Demoralising
Upper pointing out their delicious decision
really threw me in a state of erratical [insert an expletive here]
i’m tapping out morse
i’m going through this divorce
heretical so
The forest was dank
and the sounds were so scary
as i stepped through the stichos
out onto the prairie
where the oaths rose in trickles
from tossed-aside scythes
and the old well was hungry for nickels and dimes
and no touch now remained of the scent of the pines
so down - yes, for miles down the water i travelled
those mauve woolpips ravelled the faster i paddled
increasing in speed to a glamouring rabble
when suddenly - ho there! - the harbour in shambles
and as you can imagine, i started to tremble
and delve into memories barely assembled
and grasp for my love’s face - it’s so sentimental -
as i glared up at Tailswood there on the fell!
We’re afloat, it’s awfully comfy here
but you know i’m a “bigshot”
and don’t you go forgetting that, my dear
“we do the rest ourselves”
all we do is flee
seeming to plead
for … er … free reign to do just as we please
soon all the folk in town concede
“they sure were right”
and underneath we are the same as you
“ghosts of” tomorrow
float through the mantle
too delightful, and fully free
these are the claims you’ll
hear as they float out of me
No-one is paying attention to my freedom
freed ‘em from the blazing monotony
romantic comedy swings, amongst the sweeter things
the banded wedding rings
the bada bada bings
/ that’s my show there
played by Tutti Frutti Tony /
/ you are only falling in love
call me back when you think you’re done /
“Don’t love me sweetheart
or i might stop loving you” “or your career
isn’t that clear?”
“only two” “and a bit of a rebel, just a bit”
“the lesson was bad, the lesson was bad
the lesson was bad, i am patient”
“you don’t know what to make of me
but i know what to make of you
you” “alternate between”
“a clown
a cop
a priest
a businessman”
“babies” “should be grateful for appropriate” “versatility
typical scoundrel
amorous egotist
helpless” “soul mentioned my name
but who is it he speaks of?”
“money, power, adulation, being alive”
“is that fair, i ask you, is that fair?
it is true, i told you i would” “listen
and i know just what makes it” “my own truth
thank god i’m god
i pitied poor people
the rest i make up”
“those who have no cake? they can go to the bread”
When i'm finished they'll surely throw roses
and from thoses i’ll grow me a garden
and perhaps
- yes, in time -
those with plots more barren than mine
might concede me the soil that i'm... owed
god knows
that my roses arose as mere hips from that loam
plucked in turn by my patrons
- from all walks of life, mind you -
so it follows the pittance they've since cultivated
and the beds in which such meagre skill demonstrated
will verily transfer to me, celebrated
so i can raise my vegetation!
...probably more roses.
A wider net was cast than originally planned
and for a while she sat and waited
patient through the day unbaited
‘til downright deflated
she resigned herself to a fishless existence
when the skip sauntered over and spoke of his business:
“so much misery is caused by incompetence
but there’s always tomorrow, and tomorrow can’t come soon enough”
she teetered the boardwalk, pondered the drought
walkman in one paw, tackle-box in south
she tuned in and tuned out...
“So many people today
just want a girlie who they
can claim to love
without putting in enough of
the work that’s gotta be done if you’re in love
you’re dumb when you’re in love”
“So i buffeted out
the boot-print you left on my heart
it took a whole lotta years
but i’m still here
and you’re still toiling in the rearview mirror”
“So if you wanna get with me
you’d better line up ladies
(line up ladies)
if you want a love letter from me
you’d better sign up ladies
you’d better gimme your address”
“So i’m a real cruel lady
but i’ll kiss you maybe
if you talk to Sadie
she’s a little baby
she can’t handle honesty
she should live in a monastery, honestly
tell her duly
you’re in love with yours truly”
So she switches off the radio
despondently tosses it to the waves
she's searching for something these love songs just can't contain
as she inhales the midnight sea spray
Why don’t you tell it to them straight?
I’m a cube
i’m a square
i’m a sphere
i’m a circle
It’s some sidesaddle business
growing bluer each day
it’s a seven-day ride to the town they call Grey
Now i’m in the silver city
with Karin Kanzuki and the gang, glowing
Oh
i’m back again
so be kind my friend
i wasn’t following
I’m not falling down that well again

Just a pinball
ricocheting across the roads of this rickety old town
bricking ramp shots
bringing nothing, and no one, as we slip on down the drain
roll down to the arcade
they have this machine tucked away in the corner there
a 1995 Bally number
lost classic
i guess it never made the grade
backglass screams the title:
"Last Night in Glasgow"
cartoon cat flashes a grin
starts talking with me:
"my teeth once were bulbs
but now they're LEDs
so much is changing"
the conversation lulls
lured in by the lights i toss a coin into the machine
- Ball 1 -
Well it's free like a bird in here
but it's hot like a burden sears
and i've heard tell the end-times are drawing
- Ball 2 -
near
so they grab what they can and pump it full of air
cooling air
rigid air
freezing air
fleeting air
- Ball 3 -
and as a glow starts to show through the cracks in the pavement
in the brains of the bravest they’re making a savestate
a statement of interest that’s bound to be useless
a last lick of flame that could lap at the clueless
PLEASE DO NOT PAY MONEY FOR THIS ALBUM I ONLY MADE IT POSSIBLE TO DO SO TEMPORARILY SO THAT BANDCAMP INDEXES IT, IF YOU PAY MONEY FOR THIS ALBUM I WILL JUST ATTEMPT TO REFUND YOU
"Pacing beneath the frozen arch for the final time, Perla found itself awash. Though a globe to be sure (and what a globe! What a planet!), the world was now to it as a coin, flat and unyieldly in its form. Naturally, thought the child, just like those odd metal discs, this arrangement was designed to weather many generations of use and usurping. But even the most immaculately minted coin can be melted down. With enough licks of flame to help it on its way, that is. A globule of something-or-other fell from the arch, landing in Perla's hair. It shrugged and kept moving."
- Excerpt from “A Doctress's Patience” by Vicki Winters
Here lies another record. Being as it was a double-album consisting of “Heads” (tracks 1-10) and “Tails” (tracks 12-21), the title was “Coin”. Pop music is alive, long die pop music. Do as you will.
- Lane
