Jimi Hendrix
Brixton’s a whale
that swims through London,
only at night,
writing poems for
the immortal alien
that hides inside its backbone.
Brixton’s a weapon
that asks what happened,
when, and why.
I tried and said,
what never said,
what never said.
I wrote the words in coffee, moving.
Whatever said,
a word that’s often.
I tried to say it.
Some fun, some say it.
Some love, they do it.
Then Jimi said,
—S’cuse me
while I kiss this guy.
