Sleeping in filth
Best and my mind is like the field the day after a festival Scenes of disarray and unrest Women in involuntary undress In use-stressed doorways Their visible garters drawing alarmed starts by early starters At cider-summoned rest In the portico near the portraits of those most sporting martyrs Chip-fattened corvids having hearters out west.

Black 47 47 47 47
The strained fabric keeping society chained started to undo The most lasting work of the first and final Artist fades then splits, unglued The printed page wilts, then decays. What does fun do that force couldn’t? Old and awkward cousins, estranged decades but mates in the manger The squawking crows recognised something was coming, fled…

Taking so many drugs that my personality becomes a mistake I can alter with an eraser.
Like an eye an hour before sleep I become divorced from Me Bleeding reasons onto the leaves Last night again that same dream, Parisian Lost in a maze, samefaced streets, ablaze lamplight on rain sleekness Walking shamefaced, backstreets route to her place Write something true: Left bright-eyed, came home bereft in a torn and muddy…

I smacked him in the god-chocked chamber where he had gone to raze meat for his patron the lame dwarf Obekus.
Formless language, Daniel sandwiched between Pointy-eared demons and Babylonian Chieftains Torchlit banquet, Banquo angling for my bankroll, carrot dangling bandits Don’t accept offers, refuse plainly don’t overexplain, simply refuse Ripped band aid’s the trick How you say; it doesn’t have to be rude to stick If it’s true, that’s the rule even if they rue…

Homemade TNT
My homemade grenade proves ground raising, new grave no spade Tumult and rubble, too much fucking trouble, underground rumblings Oarfish dying surface rising, sure signs of earthquakes coming In Chile, a farmer shocked at a four-headed calf birth In Bosnia, a child seen in bat form taking wing Birth of Manbat Batboy’s accomplice Fast as…
