Bio
Perfect paper people, playing perfect paper games
running round, up and down
flying perfect paper planes.
Precious paper people, selling precious paper names
skipping stones, building bones
‘till it all goes down in flames.
Pious paper people, passing pious paper blame
whittled thin, washed pure white
to avoid that inky shame.
Peaceful paper people, inside a peaceful paper frame
a canvas carved on newsprint skin
with admirable acclaim.
Panicked paper people, who in paper panic aim
long lost lyrics, sung so sweet
by those of fleeting fame.
Perfect paper people, making perfect paper claims
on love and lives in wishful want
for all they can’t reclaim.-Inspired by Harry Baker's 'Paper People'
