lirik lagu simon armitage – my father thought it …
Loading...
my father thought it bl–dy queer,
the day i rolled home with a ring of silver in my ear
half hidden by a mop of hair. “you’ve lost your head.
if that’s how easily you’re led
you should’ve had it through your nose instead.”
and even then i hadn’t had the nerve to numb
the lobe with ice, then drive a needle through the skin,
then wear a safety-pin. it took a jeweller’s gun
to pierce the flesh, and then a friend
to thread the sleeper in, and where it slept
the hole became a sore, became a wound, and wept.
at twenty-nine, it comes as no surprise to hear
my own voice breaking like a tear, released like water,
cried from way back in the spiral of the ear. if i were you,
i’d take it out and leave it out next year.
