Old trainyard of your womanhood Not your fault it dilapidated Through lack of funding and lack of use. Long tunnel which long trains bored through, everything bored you Womanhood like a trainyard with Speed requirements Ghost of old travel Dark during day like the mind of a killer.

You Up?
In a birthday card it’s something trite In my cold car back it’s a midnight ride It’s a horrible daylike night Type of eve that man’ll cop a wolf bite Noises get lost and boys get lost in the wood at night Accounts of old murder, I’m on the count, count dracula Three counts on…

Bombposition
Nothing plain about Megiddo Farplain midway devil o’er fiddles Last day and first day reaching around Forces cleaving the blue of the air, the horsemen four aground A belfry with a tongueless bell, inside its shell a thing from hell, its servants girdled round.

Govt
Parade of haemophiliac leaders, left tending cheeks like cutlets losing form in deep time Tipped back heads allow privileged nostrils to sharkfin the air, an element of their inheritance Their clotless blood, their alien dentistry, Gigeresque facial symmetry Orthodontics by the Mengele Institute for the Furtherment of Argentinian Dental Order

Last Cathedral
Green droplets of soup Summer logic Haze which is not mist, July’s height Collecting tree secretions in cups and vials Collecting days in twine belted files Distilled experience supremed in a phial No more Cathedrals will be built Says what about imminent return Vaccinated against the possibility, immunitising eschaton No more Davids shall be freed…
