Holden's hat

Baudelaire's blackcurrant chewits,
David Mitchell's interconnections
and the new do-it-yourself aids
testing kit, it’s been quite a week!
I thank you for the psychedelic
screensaver, man, that fish tank
was bubbling with my brain.
Yes I recorded myself pissing
in the pond, although the sonics
seem slapped, could be the algae?
The newts have long since slithered
and only one toad remains, a ballistic boil
really. Odd to watch him sucked under.
Is there gravity in water? He seems to think so.
No I didn’t sell my soul at the car boot.
I think I made the mistake of selling the
Dyson at the same time! Hoards of disingenuous
mother types hustled and bustled, it became
quite a hooveristic rodeo. Eventually a man with
no teeth and a Loud hailer dispersed them.
Twenty-eight notes - and my soul still in tact!
Well, I’m weary now, a dead badger (yet again)
has ruined my day. Finally, I will say -
Thank you so much for your first edition copy of
Catcher in the Rye. Don’t you just hate people
who, trying to re-capture their youth, defile
the Rye by belittling it, by saying it doesn’t
possess the same resonance as when I was a teenager!
Fuck off! You shouldn’t have read it when
you were a teenager then! God bless JD
I say, and Holden’s hat, it’s an icon now!
Read Franny and Zooey, god I feel so phoney.

Be aware

A question worthy of any poem.

Fill your pockets with rocks and jump in. You'll know the answer to that questioin.

However, a good read.
