Kristen de Kline #165 Another day

another day, it can't
make up it's mind

Plastic Linda from Coburg
I'm taking her out of cold storage

throwing her on the no 19 tram
down Sydney Road and back again

when all you fuckers
have taken off   she'll be there

chilled out,   her plastic blades
rotating     so deep,

hard,   propelling air
her narrow blades 

hacking away at my heart
the way only she can

Plastic Linda from Coburg
croaking out Nick Cave songs

out of tune
scratched
out of time

though I can't
I'll sing along with them
remember
the lyrics 

can't
my mind
make up

about this day
another sunset, lost

about yesterday
kisses, stolen

and    you

    1. Ah Rob, I've missed Plastic Linda so much myself. High time she was taken out of storage and resurrected.
