in fake news

DOVE LOVE

NO ANSWERS BEFORE LUNCH

me & day degrade enough
get into it deep enough

despite 
the 
greylight
drivetime
garden tool whine

for 
a 
lunchtime 
answer
of
heroic carbs

eaten
knee
deep
in
brown envelope rain

DAWN QUESTIONS

dawns 
groundhog day 
ground zero
ambiguously greets

the red berry bush
its xmas cherries
its blips of sin 

in baby blues 
in fat dove greys
& 
striped 
jailbar 
black

antimatter bars band 
the cracked cement

~

it
asks
me
one thousand
offensive
questions

like a charity mugger
crazy on good intentions
& good methedrine

i tick NA
&
return to sender

in big red
crayon blood

~

well dawn
you knackered my mind
with your 
relentless
regular
routine

its a knackered 
steel wool ball now
all crammed & gummed

& 
it 
feels 
like magrittes apple
when 
the 
dolls come home

GREMLINS 3

interweb
saturation
posting
crocodile
tears
branded
tissues

~

incoming reports 
static crackled
by 
unseen no-wave
schism & storm

it all seems so UNDONE

&
the gremlins
in
my radar
are
ordering out for lunch

GREMLINS 2, FOOTNOTES

the
gremlins 

are
camping out
in 
the 
radar holes

& its all so DONE isnt it ?

whats special to me
is special to millions


~


diluted masses
creative efforts 
instantly
&
suddenly
in hot competition
with
the
top slots held solid
by
the dead masters
&
suicided virtuosos

only footnotes now
up
for
grabs
for 
us

GREMLINS IN 1

i look at the trees

stripped sans shame

& yes i think
  
  or 
  no . . .

  are we fallen leaves too ?

~

my
metaphor radar

short day
winter
gremlins in

clarity waits
outside the back porch

for
spring
to
please
come
soon
