Dónall Dempsey - FAUST...IN CANNING TOWN(for my old pal Al)

2014-11-08 2

Christ...in Heaven!

Isn’t it always the same?

You wait all your life

for one
succubus

to come
along

& then three
come together!

Bloody Hell...now 69
succubuses(succubi?)
all at once.

Well, I’ll be...damned!

Is this the...
bus that
goes to Canning Town

to pick up a bus
to City Airport?

The bus driver smiles
a Mephistophelean smile.

Three little devils at the bus stop
(proud of their ASBO’s)
bellow: “Here…wot you doin’ in
our manor! ”

“Michael Faust.”


“Will passenger Michael Faust
please go to gate 68

where Flight of fancy
beyond the realms of imagination

is...closing.”


“Micheal Faust...Michael Faust!
