Brits on the street, moon-

bullet lodged in frame.

sky blue beetle

SKY BLUE BEETLE

 

Painted with gloss household paint.

I took it for a spin to Dublin, pulled

up at the border checkpoint. Held-

The radio was held up by a bullet

Cartridge box. I signed on the dole

in Dublin, Gardiner street.

A dole-hopper I signed North and South 

I was I was Irish/English, taking well-

fare I deserved. After being held for hours, 

the bullet box was torn to shreds. 

On the way back I heard ‘Blue Monday’, 

pulled in as I heard nothing like it, this

Was my sky-blue Monday. Restore-

ation nation a dole-hopper going my way.

A test pot enameled underneath, as New Order 

said, ‘how much do you need’. 

I got what I needed.
