The Silence of Mandy (cont.)

The Silence of Mandy
Speak to me Mandy

Break this fucking agony
Just a single poxy word
like
a stone in the pond

to make things - any fucking thing! - ripple
with life....


Please don't just stand
there
shagging well staring
like stone
like statue on parade

Break this cunting agony

Break this cunting silence


Isn't it

The brown deep brown silence of mandy, I remember it well during my early years as a young pup. Aah yes what sweet memories of sucking the marrow from many a good bone

I love the work of Jurgen Gavin. So intense and immediate; I would like to envelope him in my ample thighs and possess him. I often read Gavin at the end of a hard day's survivalist struggles. He zips my zap back into shape - makes my large, lush thighs tingle...

Inane, inarticulate, self-indulgent drivel laddie.

I am Art and Barry's love-child - Barry Garfunkel. I was born in the Bermuda Triangle, but escaped across those troubled waters on a bridge. My forehead is enormous and my nose, huge!
