Alma
Mary the Catholic Queen,
would not let saliva,
be spat into the spleen,
for son James's baptismal,
common for left footers,
and Scots at that time,
I stood by an unlit lampin,
waiting for my wife,
she never turns to dreams,
such a palaver,
waiting by the Tweed,
like a Sunday chancer,
a tree a lamp an uncertain weave,
near Stirling,
what a fucking heave,
thinking of Alexander Trocci,
his New York leather jacket,
and Jock Stein's mate,
who ran the Italian cafe,'
and mourned each day,
Who brought us down,
i wanted to shout.
