Wrists and trysts

Born depressed, head’s recesses dreaded 

Recessive genes in surplus enshadow my sulcus

Born a dark shogun, shadowed Atlas world ashoulder 

Holding onto the speakers, feeling noise Noddy Holder

As I get older my nodding off increases in frequency.


Show tongue I’ll show gun, I’m nine times Basquiat

I’m the Uileann piper leaving Hamelin with rats

Mercury retrograde since ninety eight

Mercurial temperament, gelid stately

Fell into states, ceaseless sating

Wrists like skated rinks crossed with violent triskeles, sees us, Satan

Seize us, Jesus, render unto Caesar what’s his

Don’t make come back for the kids

Wigless judges presiding.
