Plugged out
Plug levelled his motor, M50 painted with gore Wreck’s smashed casement see nose pushed back into brain Fatal damage sustained, looks in the face like an ancient pug Who plugged out my plug, drink or drugs, mug’s game Whole flood of numbing agents swimming his veins, Doctors say CCTV grainy and grey but incident captured…

Ripping down paper reality
Nine lives won’t go nine miles when every stile subsists a new trial Different styles for different briars, Aristotlean modes keep me alive My smile more crocodile than the Nile, lipsticked by guile Checked the freezer for something to eat, lack’s surfeit Manifesting feed, fee taken, rune awakened wax surface Diadem and bracelet closely inspected prove…
