incongruity

The alcoholic’s life is incongruous
So are nuns outdoors at 4am
Greasy tracksuits glistening under candlelight
Ladybirds on telephone receivers

“Cats don’t belong on tables”

Well, there are many things which don’t belong…

Tweed elbows perched anywhere
Forks in handbags
Two piece suits with skinned knees
Port left in the bottle

(Improbably)

Men’s shoes on my bedroom floor
Fingers in my bra straps
And your tongue

(Inexplicably)

In my mouth.
