THE REGULAR SWOPPING

aging
is

the regular swopping out

of supermarket brands

on 

the 

same high street corner

where that cub hut was
& the glue deaths were

in your 

extremes
of youth

ROCK CIRCLE

bowie in a space suit

& a nine year old slash

visit

iggy
on
the
psych
ward

bagmen & fixers

kept out & left

skating at the seams

no star dazzle

to woo loose

the treatment rules

ABOUT A BEACH MORNING

grey haze burns off
morning slow

toy boat tries for fun
in a sandy rivulet

& the air it feels 

... unready

~

dressed for noon

mind on lunch

i wait there for the sync

in the evacuation of it

grey haze lifting

morning slow
