The Disappearances of Influential People


Lisa Explains Life

I have always

Been of the opinion

That people think

Far too much

 

They analyse everything

And end up staring at their feet

 

My rule has always been to feel life

Just feel it and nothing else

 

My Name is Claudia

 

 

Gerry Gill Graham

Identity politics is just like

Getting a stranger to wank you off

As you are feeling lazy

Said Gerry to the sun

The sun did not answer

As it had problems of its own

 

The Disappearances of Influential People

I do not really know why I called this poem

The Disappearances of Influential People

Maybe I wanted to be liked in Hampstead

Rather than in Hammersmith or Haringey

Who Knows
Who Cares

That all that I really care about

Is my blue obscurity
