Power Play Croquet

"Bend over Babar."
"I don't want my tempy taken!"
Iron Maiden / Darth Vader.
Both are the subject
of our documentary today.
Ecstatic packaging:
a man playing national croquet
behind a grid,
Close up on his
deep voice, clean shave
persona.
I'll be your other for a day --
is he drinking latte
on his power croquet lawn?
With orderly mallets,
   lived being the grid?

Jason's making a Mason guitarface
while airdrumming.

someone is calling
who wants an apology

the fridge won't fit,
the furniture's too large.
How will we furnish
our empty   disconnected rooms.

Pick up the receiver
Twist the spiral cord.
