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…

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…

Results day
Results of all work now revealed Writing all day and all evening Step away lizard bleeding, she enters sneakily and leans in Horror contorts her visage, reading like that Shining scene Lots to revisit, recoiled physically and made me dizzy Things I fear you could count without the Count With Hook’s right-hand digits Balmy evenings…

Foot tapping music for bomb drop lunatics
On a wobbly breeze Answers drift in the form of zombie jazz A bald man in creased briefs Who looks increasingly on the verge of collapse The plastic wraparound shades covering half his face are welded to his nut Like Frankenstein’s Monster’s metal plate, an atmospheric delay Like a ghost holding up traffic on the…
