Knowhere by Stewart Stafford
Poleaxed by vampiric tapping—
rattling timeline of a loop lapping—
Hypochondriac paranoid toothache,
tasting everything I see and break.
Showed my tongue to an undertaker;
licked his face — proved I’m no faker.
A measured, grim diagnosis followed,
matter from a cardiac pump hollowed.
Draped loosely in a tea towel shroud,
resurrected—naked, loud, and proud—
Rocket to the pub for a post-wake baptism,
a ploughman’s lunch with relish schism.
