Take what you can get

Take a chuckle from the air above the crowd
and wear it around your neck.
grab a handful of stifled morning yawns
for now, they'll keep you warm.

the newspaper rustle of the nicotine haired musician
is deafening at a certain time of the morning

take just a pinch of 'how are you?' and 'I'm ok thanks'
save them for when you can't think what to say.
hang a picture of 'can I be bothered to go to work today'
next to your signed portrait of Leonard Nimoy.

the tap dancing two-step shuffle of the people from the train
is relentless at a certain time of the morning

fill your sack with bundles of not-today-thank-you's
with the handing out of neon symbol strewn flyers
cut a slice off the carcass of an office block
clap the hands of your computer's clock shut.

the dipped in drain water grey of the clouds
is inevitable at a certain time of the morning.

The Crossi Lands in London

Having not written in some months, I thought I might just bring you all up to speed on various bits and bobs.
I am now working full time in Farringdon in London and I am moving in with my long time compadre and writing partner Senior Wallace on July 1st. We plan to do a lot more writing, acting, music and filming once we are properly moved in,decorated and unpacked, so check back here first for the latest updates.
Anyway that is where I am at right now and to be honest I couldn't be happier and more full with the joys of spring!
Catch you further on up that road...
