Quote:I've been sitting in my attic
Full of pepperdust and purple
I don't know why this line appeals to be so much but it really does.
I'm not even sure what "pepperdust and purple" is meant to entail... but I kinda get this image of someone sat in a really dusty dark attic with boxes and lots of dust and purple shadows...
Quote:Guitars and I've been sighing. When
I be bit more pronounceable
Now there's a sentiment and a half
Quote:I'll catch a dragon in a glass,
But keep it off the furniture.
That just makes me smile. This whole poem makes me smile in fact. It's... not FUNNY... just kinda... wry I guess
Quote:I'll be dripping from the ceiling
While you make me a cup of tea;
While your painted nails are peeling,
I'll be soaking the settee.
Lovely. I love the poem. It manages to have a kinda insane twist that makes you smile in almost a nostalgic way (i'm not TRYING to overdig here) without being laugh out loud funny.
I'm guessing that behind some of those odd twists there was something fuelling it... but even as a stand-alone-almost-nonsensical poem... i just love it
