STRUGGLE PUPS VOL 20

  the 

  myriad menagerie

  of 

  struggle pups

  silently call

  in 

hopeful telepathy

  to

netflix & the lottery

  food bank

  clothes bank 

damage-control left for later

theres no later

  & 

  they keep on keeping on

  the

FRI A.M. POPLINGS

THOSE WERE THE DAYS

blair & bush

sexy dossiers

a redo war 

fuck times
inevitable
rosy glow



VICARIOUS MUCH

listen up you loser children

i
shared
the
world
with
elvis

TV ME

its
a 
blessing

& 
a curse

to be ill
in the days
of
netflix & pill

now-
i think i speak swedish

now-
i am never ever going
into any french woods

now-
second season sadness
&
menu hell

NETFLIX DAWN

when i used to go out
i
was
all
shutdown

performing my denial
in the curbstone night time

and now i am open
i
cant
make
it
into town

so i play at howard hughes
in the netflix dawn

and ebay is alchemy in the bed o clock noon
where 
i 
stretch out 
in silence

counting the moons and the spoons

ENJOYING IT ON PURPOSE

industry assassinated a cow
and emptied him out
for me to sit on

and
i
make SURE
to
enjoy
it

tranquilised 
watching netflix
frappucino in my hand

and
smiling on purpose
i
work 
HARD 
at being entertained 

so i dont let down
those that suffer 
with 
their
hopeless endless 

dreams of here

READING THE YELLOW PRESS

cooking-hot 2015 & scientists worry

they always worry
thats what KNOWLEDGE does for ya - ha 

less than 20 yrs 
they say
less than 20 yrs

bleh & meh & netflix . . .
cos thats AGES . . .

eve of destruction ?
we read the yellow press

  i 
sit out there 
see the pm smog 
haze the hills
into shadow mountains

  i 
sit out there
the moons clear eye
turn
to
misty care-home cataracts 

    &
  anyway
if our shoes melt
  we
    can 
      buy 
        more
          cant we ?

LIKE A SCRABBLE BLANK

theres a limbo 
that
hangs 
between Netflix and HBO
hangs
heavy
like low cloud

its a dark fog with a mouth
in
the
rush
between
desktop and dashboard

too 
obvious to acknowledge 
when
you
got
to
put the supper on
and
get the washing dry

its
a
whole
blank
january
condensed into a blink

it can be embraced tho

like
a
sick
friend

if
you
make the time
