Wouldn’t you
Be lucky
If I was next door

No
I don’t think so

I’m perfectly happy
Just where you are

Love is all
The heart can cross
The deepest seas

Well
That’s easy enough
Absent consequence
Fingers fondling
The plastic keys

Who can tell
Where this may go
Perhaps to Avalon
If we try

Or Arthur after
One too many injuries . . .
Only going West
To die

John,

I always rather liked Birmingham. Birmingham, England that is. I remember getting drunk up around the Bull Ring during the marching season.

I didn't get in a fight.

As far as I know, you've lived there for seven years.

I don't get out much, and unless you have a jackhammer, a leafblower, a saw, or an amp, I generally mind my own business.

er...usually.
