others conquered love but i ran

this is one of my favourite poems. it's called i wanna be yours by manchester performance poet john cooper clarke.

i wanna be your vacuum cleaner

breathing in your dust

i wanna be your ford cortina

i will never rust

if you like your coffee hot

let me be your coffee pot

you call the shots

i wanna be yours

i wanna be your raincoat

for those frequent rainy days

i wanna be your dreamboat

when you want to sail away

let me be your teddy bear

take me with you anywhere

i don’t care

i wanna be yours

i wanna be your electric meter

i will not run out

i wanna be the electric heater

you’ll get cold without

i wanna be your setting lotion

hold your hair in deep devotion

deep as the deep atlantic ocean

that’s how deep is my devotion

currently listening to:

since yesterday ~ strawberry switchblade

the greatest ~ cat power

genius of love ~ tom tom club

you don't have to say you love me ~ dusty springfield
