Almanac Poetry: ‘Go see Joe’

 

Smokin’ Joe from West Altona
Drops hot chillies in his Corona
Eats mint peas and roast potatoes
Always wears these: Aviators

 

You don’t need to bring karate
When you’re wearing Aviators
They keep everything cool
Same as car radiators

 

You don’t need to do Hatha Yoga
When you’re wearing Aviators
They take you to a higher plane
Same as escalators

 

So if you want a new persona
Go see Joe in West Altona
Home of mint peas and roast potatoes
And most particularly: Aviators
