Sport 12: Autumn 1994

In Point of Fact

In Point of Fact

Your earth
is my inheritance.
I play the game
to the best of my
natural resources.
I want to go places
but Daddy is
no diplomat.
All my friends
are called Dave.
I might like you better
if we slept together.
page 121 I am always right.
Public transport
swallows my pride.
Nirvana is
riding elevators
called Otis.
Each time I
sit around
I think I’m shot.
TV sets me up.
I am beautiful
and lazy
—which is fine.
Alcohol brings things
to life.
I tie people
to my feet
as shoes.
I saw this movie once.
What I hate
about Dave
is his give and take.
I imagine sex
to be like peaches.
Suicide is
a viable alternative.
Tomorrow
I turned inside out.
I surprise myself
by not being hurt.
I am always wrong.
When I was young
I got the jug cord.
Everything bores me.
I masturbate
while thinking
about animals.
Good advice
page 122 is a treasonable act.
I lie with my lies
to find decisions.
My pressure is
in all the wrong places.
Help is not something
I cry for.
Important people
never say never.
I am not impoverished
spoilt and happy.
Appearances matter.
I am popular
with exceptions.
Don’t think I
didn’t warn you.
I eat my dandruff.
I have that
petrol emotion.
My privilege
is a human right.
In point of fact
I just can’t
ever ever ever
believe you.
