there’s always a bloody fence

 there’s always a bloody fence


there’s always a bloody fence

in the can’t go there shall go there childhood

squeezed passed or overturned the days we did 

what we did and sod all who would stop us

scuffed luck grazed chances spent time

in the going upon an adventure of a day’s deciding

the tally of mischief’s direction into the dereliction of ruin

tasting the dust of laughter trembling on indecision 

whether to run or risk another explosion of daring to do

what we should not do but we did do

do you remember how our knees healed so quickly

that the blood almost did not have time to dry 

on a blast of learning that next time

carefree will take onboard another care

how pockets fill with skinned knuckles 

under the freckled sun of me and you mun

do you remember now how we did it again

it’s up to you son

shall we

it’s all up to you
