MY AI DOWNLOADED YOUR DEEPFAKE

i absorbed you all 

into my monkey ether
over those 1000 hour

for no-choice alone reruns

youre in my habit
my satchel
& my epaulettes

the past is a ghost

i am a history church

FIRE STILL IN MY POCKET

watching the beasts 
on the retro rotunda

got jeans up to here
scarves down to there

  & 

i am in the cloud

periscope covertly up

music box ballads on

fire there 

in my pocket

TORMENTED RECALL

  all 

the moments gone

  like
fagbutts in the rain

dust in the sand

wails in space

  all 

the moments gone

  but 

for my tormented recall

  that bar 

up the backstairs - north london

the view there

arches of stone
  & 

the threat of dungeons & dragons

  zombie 

  zombie 

sang the song

  & 

in those blue days 

more whisky was still

a classic & workable 

in-practice solution

recall now 

stone sober

crystal clear

STEPPING UP DOWN MEMORY STREET

but theyre gone too

so i step up down memory street

doing my time

& its rib-jammed spoon
is working itself looser
with 

the 
strange rumblings & anxious undulations
of
the worse case scenarios 

painted inside my blinks

looks like peace & freedom

the flip side -
twinkle eyed marching 

on a sparking mission

round the fountains & lions

& good for blink glimpses only

LANDFILL HILL (AFTER LISTENING TO BOB FORREST)

most 

everythings 

in landfill hill *

apart from love & fear

these jeans 

this hat

1000 unceremonied burials

we went mad with stuff

~

impossible / unlikely / crazy

as it feels / is / sounds

one day i may be 

blown dust & smoke drift 

loose in the bird cloud sky

except for my love & my fear
theyre the hills

the mountain valleys

timeless maybe & almost music

tomorrows uncut songs

blunt mineral  

potential in the stone

~

i hope they keep you up

or you find others that do

on the streaming dial

i hope they save your life 

save your love & your fear 

i hope you give 

my vintage denim 

a good home

pockets mad with stuff

above landfill hill

  dont look in the loft
