Euphemia's Brother
And This - 14
- sure but it's grand life jack
- great. a great life paddy
- it seems to go here (and it does this) paddy
- and then it does this jack, like this, and like, this
- and like (this) - and all spinning paddy, twirly twirly twirly
- sure 'tis a twirly-gig thing we're sitting upon jack
- and then...
- we seem to be stopped paddy, suddenly, we've stopped
- we're stilled out of our wits i think, by the sea and the sky
- i think we might be statues paddy, or close to death
- is that the end of mahler's 9th i hear?
- it's on a stage we are paddy, between an above and a below
- bejabbers and bejesus, are we in a pina bausch show?
- come, let us dance jack... me with a jig and you with a tango
- i can't dance paddy, you know that, i can't dance at all, i think it's genetic
- holy mary mother of god jack
- i can't dance, i can't swim.
- you can't go with the flow, and you can't swim against it?
- i just twat about in the middle, waving my arms
- it can't go on like this paddy
- we must go on jack, it's the law
- what law?
- the third law, or the second, of thermodynamics! don't you know anything?
- i know e=mc²
- that'll do nicely
- it can't go on like this jack
- we must go on paddy
- we go on
