B Side

K and H, compare and contrast:
A boring old fart, the first to be cast;
Stuck in the 80s, fresh as the day;
Bulging past tight, loose but no way.

Imagining scenarios including common ground,
Where smiling conversations and sweet secrets might be found,
Appallingly ridiculous, embarrassing, a fright,
No way, today or any day, not this flight it's not right:
The special one's exquisite thumbs must be assumed as down.

Dodgy fake airman, indepenstudent;
Rather less sporty, rather more prudent;
Easily drawn, immune to all greed;
Almost clean shaven, barely a need.

More introspective arguments than roundabouts or mountains,
Yippee for celebrations in and out with pretty fountains,
A source of satisfaction sticky grins and lengthy walks.
Sad missing sparks and kindling look lovely but neither talks.

Solemn seat filler, attention hogger;
Crumpled invisible, vertical jogger;
Scribbler and dribbler, offline and twitching;
Decaying wizard, elfin bewitching.

Futility's superfluous but words are necessary,
Pins needles and unfeeling blips are wow as well as scary.
The tails that wag the velvet crutch they're there for full distraction,
Impossible is everyday, it's always just a fraction.
