all the baking hot pennies you pressed to your legs
the raw puckered flesh
(and royal reflection)
a punishment for things you never did
can be counted and changed
spent on a rocket ship
to fly around the sun
because on Tuesday night
you hit him back
now the storm has passed
and the world looks like your daughters green eyes
thanks martin! now i have the song circling my head too!
i did write something about (the nonexistant) julia a few weeks back but then the image of the pennies popped up (maybe i should be worried...) and they seemed to go well together.
At first when I read the title I thought it was about John Lennon's mother and had the song going round in my mind. But it is very effective both in it's delivery and impact . no longer holding back.
