LAWS
Struggle that’s the house rules Plug ‘em if they’re ass moves Even cousins go undercover If there’s not enough thread count in the covers If the budget dips under If there’s thunder rumbling Or too few pies in the oven Even just plain old got a bun in the oven and need to get right…

There’s life in the old dog yet, said the lifeless old dog to the vet.
Once esteemed fighter fails to redeem in nailbiter His chin’s been seen to, leg isn’t great either But there’s grit and dog-genes, you can’t deny it Elbows creaking like ichor-leaking Talos As Jason sails away with intact stolen payload Tying to reach higher tiers, better seats Still seeking, still willing to bleed to trap the…

Glued to the deluding mirror
I suppose we all cast the Hercules role for ourselves In our proposed most audacious, rose-lit fantasies of the past First to last and last to first, life’s process: the removal of blessings Tides changing and fits and starts and droughts and bursts Hurts and blurted loves, haloed doves and rages like rockets Comets hurtling,…

Creating everything just to periodically destroy it with frenzies of immodest flame
I’m at the place I think I’ve been called to Blent-in like modest highlights, writ with ivy on the walls, Signifiers and signs of as yet unlit fires The tyre tracks of grand designs Whose first-mind vehicles haven’t yet left the station Behind the station the high wall Using a bench’s armrest I reach the…

So taken aback was I by the vantage from the tower of my own land’s confines that I gripped hard the balustrade to stop my moorless soul from taking flight
Trees either side of me Like I’m moving sweetly, fleetly, like a carried leaf Down the Anduin If you are born to be King then the lakelady will hand you it An anvil’s weight this unnamed crown leadlike with light-leaking jewels Fine rooms and suites, sweet things Lingering tastes, eyries; high peaks and tubular towers…
