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…

Yielding flesh divulges relevant answers to a knife-wielding querent
Meandering sciences like crafts unpiloted This way and that way, tugging and repelling, rewriting the skies I have to wear a disguise to write, that much I do despise myself I must rise from bed and write despite myself, for my bread What the right refuses, the left will endeavour to do I will not…

Sirens
Last resort lane, ladies charming suited lames in grey Mercedes Short shorts with big baps doing street laps pleading, small heat maps Selling their meat even when they’re bleeding Cheeks hard from backhands, street’s hard better back glance Some of them damaged by sexual animals, others fifth chancers Keep fleeing rehab at the first chance,…
