GIGOT BITUME




who was the poet
who wrote about
the beast slouching towards us all ?

cos i can sense 
its shamanic mandibles
& archaic gait

in the treeline of the woods
&
in the shadows from the walls

its breath hot as fresh bitumen
gripping its aggregate base

~

it will cook & carve & consume us
in celebration of its construction

like the french do
with a leg of lamb
