I’ve Been Effed By The Effing Ineffable - By Janus

Throwing out the garbage is a necessary part of life, I am told. And where would I be going if I hadn’t been going down to the tip? Right now to dispose, and generally too, I suppose. The tip isn’t high up as you would think but deep...low down close to the sleeping Earth.

Who should I thank for the time given and the time taken away? Not after vision or reward; what I have to tell probably should have remained underground. I was never singled out for singing; my fear of failure had me on a string.

Longing to get the dirty water off my chest, but it doesn’t flow so well. As long as a piece of string or the rope I’ve been handed; I never knew how to love coming up short. All my life is a dream except the telling, and the telling might as well be nought.

I am not unique or abiding any law when I say the rules are for proving exceptions, and we shall not overcome. I always asked life to show me
its bum, and I have shown what comes of mine there in the album where nothing is spared.

It has traded intelligibility for musicality. Sounds more like poetry.

Read this, and sang this:



There is a necessary incompleteness to the notion of valuelessness - of rubbish. There can be no waste, no bum, without a hungry mouth. And vice versa.

Usually, the mouth gets all the best lines... 'No I won't tell you a thing'.
