O-Koe


Sacrifice a pleasant morning 

For a fucked up night?

I think no

but it's nice to have 

your share of 

afternoon delights

strictly Starland-

I don't get

the concept of 

studio quartets 

Naturally

I'll take bacon

with my eggs

-these are my morning

opiates

Come midday 

I'm still asleep

come midnight

I'm high on 

coffee 

or darjeeling

depending on where

I wake that evening

depending on

which Waugh

novel I'm reading

I'm poor

I pour the

creamy milk 

first

or my china

may crack

What horror!
