Our side of the fam ( written earlier this afternoon)
Posted by Ray Schaufeld on Thu, 03 Nov 2022
On our side disablement abounds
The sticks the wheels the meds are offered round
The glasses, the bus passes
Lost my money in London, who knows where
One squid left - that's something here and now
In a corner shop in Bath.
I can buy a chocolate flapjack - porridge and sugar!
In fact I was three pennies short of the funds
And the sales assistant who was younger and bigger than me
Let me away with it.
Sharing goes round...
Many of us spazzos form a crowd
Many of us slurrers and stumblers can shout out loud
'One time in twenty the Wise Guy speaks not right
One time in twenty - the Fool shines bright'*
Ten lowlifers share their dole
And pass the bottles and the Bob Marleys in plain sight of the bizzies
Bob a Job's not a slob these are our townside foraging Scouts and Guides
'I'm no thief - I just picked it up' - the sharing world is wide.
My credit card back at my place may do me no credit
It is my choice if I share it or shred it.
Today I will owe and put it on the slate
Tomorrow it is your turn and not that long to wait.
Dear ole London town has made me turn Ginger
It's the London patter or maybe it's Devon Ninja
So I'm glad to be safely back home
Praise Be!

Its true that all men are dealers
Meet me for the privae gathering by the Bridge
Now or near enough
'the stranger song'

And a lot of lost souls in Montreal any many other point on and off the Planet were searching for Suzanne in her colourful indie charity shop garb
