Ett tämligen jordnära svar på Peter Ingestads Sonnett for Katie 25.  


Monday Sonnet

 

 

Yeah, let us have another gin & tonic

and type a tune on that old Panasonic:

what if we really do exist, dear Georgie?

What if your Bess is ready for her Porgy?

 

She' s waiting, old & ugly, by the phone,

so far away from your Platonic throne

She' s waiting for a man to pay her bills

to fix her car, to give her sexual thrills

 

to clean her windows,  entertain her kids

and screw up all those ever-leaking lids

reality' s just dirt, and so are we,

 

quite simply earthbound, never will be free.

 "A sister should not linger with her brother"

But, damn it, if there really is no other?
