about

A tiny train spiralling down to cross-country ski under an avalanche-prone mountain, doing the Guardian crossword with JK, draw, Jenape, the rumble of snow or the train...

lyrics

Becoming one with my lunch

Merging with the railway track,
Becoming one with my lunch,
Twenty-four across racking my brain.
Rattling down the tiny mountain train,
Lofganger, cross-country skier,
Spiralling from the hub.

Ski away…

Straying from the piste for a slug of Jenape and a slow draw,
Sliding away from the law.
I am atoned for my frosty sins,
Skiing home on skinny pins,
Parallel to the wood.

Ski away…

Slate stacked one mile high,
Holding its breath and waiting,
For the answer to 13 down.
Slip, slap, slide, slurge,
Tide-rip, snowflake let’s try to free associate…
Come on, John.

Ski away…
