friday's child

I stared in the mirror     until I no longer recognised my face      but saw in my reflection       that friday’s child      is a trumpet of peace      and a sword of  deliverance       from the forces of darkness

I laid me down      by the still waters    an oasis of life      in the motherless waste      where the wisest of fools       will surrender their hearts      to the love universal

I’ve been turned out        with no brass in my pockets      but I count the stars as personal wealth       my home is heaven       this born again loser       who supped with the devil       and drank to his health
