Garden Foxes
Early just this morning I woke from sleep to see A fox stole from my garden the skull of a sheep Perhaps to Hamlet over, returned it to their keep A trench-veined garden allotment up the street In April and May, all night they scream and screech With child or for a mate, the fox…

How We Met
Tender as His Mercy Love can happen from Tinder On profiles we tender ourselves How can you expect affection when you won’t lend yourself to anyone a red second Wanted first, had second, third had no objection Never been an also ran, never had a second plan, self assured I’m iron man I’m not overcautious…

Night Drive Neon Stained Skies
Key to things beyond my ken Obelisk tip is called Ben Ben It represents primordial land Song stage on which Atum stands.

Today’s Sermon
They fidget on pews The Lord’s body abused My church of good news Easy accrues a mill views Even my food is loot My amuse bouche Cost more than your shoes They have loose lips these louche gits Money hand over fist, well equipped Well corrupt, into publics dipped More hoverers than a fly strip…

Expired License Day Drive
Finally got my limo Can’t drive that’s the thing though Touching Her in the back Frisky dingo More holes than Ozone I’m accumulating orgone Energy converting to orgasm Drunk driving home We knock down cones Bird in back says I’ve the lonely bones Result assured like the fight was thrown No chance I’ll spend tonight…

Console Booting Up
Head spinning broken satellite Head held low pattern saturnine Couch potato sat at nine News is on, they’re lying Pen you when you don’t tow the line Men do what they want most the time Half of them shackled, rest of them dying For fistfuls of shekels PS5 been off a while Massive drain the…
