JOHN PEEL VIVA!

first heard it on Peel:
the song I want
played at my funeral

Santo & Johnny
going on their ''Sleepwalk"

soundtracking days & dreams
beautiful

Saint John's letters to the philistines
to the converted - for all people

"I Forgot to Rembember to Forget"
and then in "Waiting Room"
another beginning

and then another & another
and still another one
like "You're, Right I'm Left, He's Gone"

how i will miss the ritual
of listening to you

(growing up)

finally i've decorated
with something appropriate

wrote it out
on wet concrete outside my house:
VIVA JOHN PEEL 1939-2004

Viva Peel
forever more
