In the beginning was the word
and the word was Godot

In the beginning was the grid
and the grid was nihilism

And Godot smiled upon the earth

Godot found himself drawing grids
to escape domestic oblivion

Godot believes in sound art and lemon cake

Godot dismisses all creeds
including light and divinity

He decides not to wear grey as it is a cliche
instead he wears off-yellow

He likes wall climbing in his spare time

Godot loves the word ‘melancholy’
it reminds him of his hero Heathcliff

He is definitely not sympathetic
except with slugs
who sometimes make him cry

He is often found
washed up on the beach
with an empty milk carton

He is slightly puzzled that he doesn’t exist
