Volume 18 – Sky Burial – 3rd Quarter 2009
1- CALL ME SWORD- Call me Sword Because I am always Up to
the hilt Taken to the hilt twice recently Sleep when you’re dead I say Push it to
keep busy Help you do what you want To do Blow some sugar Up your arse! They
won’t reactivate my card And is that other agreement still fixed too? This has
been going on Three weeks now Right before we go to
2- LOOK OUT THROUGH YOUR EYES- As for us Immortals see They all die off in some Other adventure evidently In our present time Only fleetingly Better not catch us at it then! Look out through your eyes What do you see Paranoioa or Extasy Overlapping girlfriends Not a good call One at a time Says it all Very few people you get to meet
3- CONSTANTIA- Give them a job that They don’t understand For a lifetime Of entertainment The illusion of the 9 to 5 Vanished far away Constantine and Constantia We’ve got a Vespasian too Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance Shuffling his files Bizarre bloodlines and ancestries Methods of Creation The romances that came back to haunt me Many years later In a face across the street Another generation
4- I MEAN TO GET PAID- She was going to Walk out Without paying me For the Reading But in the end She gave me twenty-five quid It came in quite needy Do it for Charity Do it at the Village Fete Do it for Cancer Research All the fags I smoke Eventually strawberries Dad gave her a donkey As a gift one day Diva push all the freaks away Slightly wonder what impact you have
5- EIGHTEENTH INSTALLMENT- When your cards Won’t give you cash You have to think out of the box They may let you pay for food But not take it to the pub Eighteenth Installment Up in Edinburgh again For the Festival twenty years later See the United Kingdom Map out into a plan See six strawberries Shout “Give Way!” Give Way for us to move on again A second time to Cropredy with a press pass I went Mistress D. takes the stage With a preview of her scent
6- WHAT DO YOU EXPECT?- She’s got the vehicle now A product for All the red-blooded men She is very tempting I fight them off again She brought us up here,so I am always interested in the Money Buy and Sell, my friend Hoping for a big break somewhere A journey to begin Take our pleasure Lowest South Highest North We have been Features and Creatures On the Planet again I chase you to the ends of the Earth and back around again
7- SEVEN DEADLY SINS- I’ve been setting off police sirens for days But then finally got paid I am the Axletree visited by Mephistopheles The Sons of Baphomet me Rooted in the darkest depths of Hell but choiring with the angels Could be more slick But that’s business it seems The Sun a Chocolate Box An Orange at this part of the Story: Geometries: Balls to fit a shape The Seven Deadly Sins Arrive at the Party Always in the Middle but get out occasionally
8- WIND BLOWING THROUGH- South-facing window Gets all the Sun Not doing anything Wanting to run- Foot in the stirrup And climb astride Feel my heart beating again Metabolism blues You are what you consume I don’t need a television To string a sentence together Or they won’t give you the job you need Because they say you’d find it too boring Up in our Tower of Silence With the wind blowing through
9- YOUR FACE- As a bandana-headed mystic Or at an Art Gallery If you want something doing for you First learn how to do it yourself It is a Primary Rule It’s not quite so important so Getting home again y’know Learn to rely on yourself first if the only help is you Work expands to fill the time allotted But a busy person can fit it in For two years now subdivided into Quarters For to file with ease- first Books, then Albums Volumes and now Installments Updating as we please Me a victim of your beautiful face And you too a victim of your beautiful face Through days and time and place A second trip out there Three years now since South Africa and Mozambique We’re travelling again
10- ALSO KNOWN AS...- The Axletree Then money grows on trees In Diaspora Tricks And Diplodocus Crossing And in this scribble definitely A twenty-sixth outing for me Upgrading all the time But the guitars are by him But yet I still enjoy it And the songs are about us But yet I still enjoy it Six books before the Music started Before “Jonathan Wain” became “Sky Burial” My Tarot in the Garden The Wheel at Culworth Ride Seven Days when there are no excuses A Warlock’s Tarot follows through
11- YOU’LL FIND ME- The Axletree found for me In the Ramayana And in Faust’s history Native in its greenery And sinews and leaves Snow White and her seven dwarfs Surrounded by the Seven Deadly Sins Has it gone in? Has it gone in? Check my balance feverishly Gateway in Doctor Strange Just who is in charge of this game? What in contrast do they know? I’m your wheels my beauty You’ll find me Over at the Counting House Where people put on shows for free
12- U.K. MAINLAND- Junction Eleven Boogie For Our Four Shires Tour Guide Sensation For London Town Over at the Counting House For Edinburgh’s Festival A Lonely Planet For successful businessmen For the U.K. Mainland The link our rolling fields We can see for ten miles from there Spread in each direction Casting director plots our histories Always a leading lady I however your husband The Power behind the Throne Cities and Towns and Money Put them all in Then remove some at the last minute
13- YELLOW- A yellow frame for that family “The Emperor Needs You” again Infrastructure holding up well Two significant families then The Day I met God I swear Not for religion but the streaks in his hair! Yellow for Abundance Yellow for Fruit Yellow for Giving Yellow for the Fool Black Ice Blue Orange Yellow too Green like a Justice Help for the homeless Spare cash for Charity or building up a Dynasty Blue like an Ultramarine It must have taught me Control A sperm on a surfboard Nuts and Bolts Observations Set up a Show Last-minute hitches overcome- GO!
14- MORE SUCCESSFUL THAN I REALISED- With our fish under the grill It takes seconds to bring the vegetables Back up to the boil Like The Hitchhiker’s Guide Souvenirs of the Planet Joke about our relationship More successful than I realised They say she costs me an absolute Fortune Without this there’d be nothing Parts of London like Vlad Dracula Conversation with Satan Across the M40 at least twice Towards Nuith’s area They never ever see her Not to say they don’t guess her though The Mind is like a River
15- GUN IT- You want to gun it don’t you I do don’t you know Will she take to the bridle In her mouth gently my horse Or will she be a job to be caught I don’t treat her badly She should cooperate Sorry it’s only Mickey Mouse money Sometimes that’s all we really need Broadcast in the Nation’s subconscious I told you not to see her again If you pay peanuts you get monkeys Don’t you they say They enjoy it the horses they love to ride out And stand still while I mount Something like Bondage about whips and chains I’m very careful strong hands soft mouth
16- PURPLE- Purple frames next To continue the colour scheme Better not green We’ve already got fields Right in there with the images For “Trigger” and “Magazine” Queen of Wands in a triangle Like the shape of a Stealth Knight of Disks thinking of a Woman Thinking of Wealth Wood, Black, Ice Blue, Blazing Orange, Sunburst Yellow, Warlock Purple and on we go Both about Jenny My best ever screw Reminding me what we’ve got Us two Daffodils spin into a Rubik’s Cube and out to Aphrodite
17- IN THE MIDDLE- A wheatfield by Moonlight before the Harvest At Fairport Convention And a Stairway At Edinburgh Festival Going into Sunshine Transmat Beam This is what I was writing In the weeks before it came out on sale And as we transform the tale Welcome to the Middle of the Film Several titles now have reference to you We want coverage yes we do What we think about it now Is how it will be They’re getting interested, see Work our way round them if needs be Adult content- consult your GP
