Pondered, pandered and explained

Explain what?

Nothing, everything, again

Hotep hard

Still no black card

What’s a me to do

Write

That’s what I do

Write myself in

Write myself out

Write myself forwards

Write myself backwards

Some hope sideways

Never

But never’s a long time

And it’s quite clever

Because it keeps movin’

The right way

Who’s to say

Forward, backward and diagonal-lay

To see your people freely play

Hello May

Hold the Mayday
