tradesmen

I was thinkin today
that if I could do it
I go be a tradesman

I have a cousine that is a framer
and he’s got work up the wazoooo
and nobody to help
cos people think
bangin a hammer is beneath them

me
I think that if you got to go to work in the morn
and home at night
without once feeling the need
to burst into tears

it’s gotta be all good…
and it sure as hell would beat my job

A Toast to Absent Friends

“to absent friends
to those we have met
to those we have yet to meet
to those who have left us for a while
and to those who have left us forever

let us lift our glasses
and drink a toast
that they may abide in our hearts
forever

to absent friends”
