The Warp

Far memory




Far Memory

Have You Been Here Before?


Who were you in your previous life?

Queen? Priestess? Parson? Lord?

Virgin? Schoolgirl? Prince? or Fiend?

Rapist? Centurion? Saint? or Fraud?

did you scare the pants off them

or cringe in awe

when you were here before?


were you a nifty slicer with sword so pucker

householder, wanderer, rich or poor?

warrior at arms or just some poor sucker

the cat brought home for its supper

when you were here before?


far memories far memories

flowing fast you come to me from misty times long gone

calling me to recognise to recognise

places where I’ve never been

melodies that tease me from some half forgotten song

that I never heard in this life

sounds of ancient temple bell, mountain flute

and long since ringing sounding ringing sounding

ringing sounding ringing sounding echoing

echoing ...

gong ...


with you and your mate was it love at first sight?

or was it really that you already knew each other

already had loved for a lifetime or a night

sought each other out for a fuck or a light

in ages long before?


the sands of time are shifting

and nothing’s what it seems

so when we meet someone new

often we feel we know them already

from our own distant dreams


and is there any end to it

is there anything else in store?

or will we through all lives

always be brought back for more?


who were you in your past life

a nifty slicer with the sword, or a sucker

householder, wanderer, duck or whore

a king enthroned?

or just some poor fucker

the cat brought back to ear for its supper

when you were here before?
