Image of alpha to omega tablet

First lines

A life drowning in fluids and smoke

A score years since I left Coventry, I'm off again

An insult too many

At first The Wall of Blue

Corpses

Cross of blood on white

Dangling, tantalizing carrot

Fat Ambulance, Fat Ambulance!

Fiery mirror

Five days in -it's a curse

Five a.m. light reveals a brilliant guest

Five days in - it's a curse

Flood light creeps round seams of curtains

For eight years I've cherished a wee, free bird

Goalhanger month, February!

He's popular in the neighbourhood

Here's his costume but you'll need boots

I fell in love on the Northern Line

I thought I saw a Liger

I was working on my car

Into ether slipping, wispish through the mirror

In humble style I start this tale

Layers of paint anew glide on

Loving you

Mambo, salsa, cross-body lead

New pinstripes the frame adorn

One Spring dusk on Lose Hill

Our neighbours are perfectionists

Oxymoron town

Pete the Meat has had a heart attack

Powder from the heavens

Southover torches blaze once more

Sparkling air of shards o' glass

Streets ablaze with diversion

The dial completes another cycle

The Fiat walks Jesus-like on water

The jurors sit down

The Last Word is dead

The old Slam Door train rolls in

The scales tip

Valentine's night on my ownsome

Village of Vacation! Campus of Fun!

Welcome home!

'What're yer having done today?' asks the barber

Women are like minicabs

You hunt sex like some shoot rabbits

You were my friend Egg

You were the greatest of your time

Your eyes shone radiant bright
