COUNTRY BOY
“country matters”, Shakespeare,
Hamlet

we were
making love so sweet
it was getting like treacle

when I
mixing even more sugar
into my metaphor

flew back
from that
far-flung galaxy
to address
the state of the world

whose soul had been
long sold, controlled,
stripped of all
joy and
spontaneity

this the
last precious country
where you
can start where you
like, go
where you
wish to go
say
what you feel
