ISNT THE SUMMING UP OF A MANS LIFE A SORT OF PRAYER

BABY WITH THE BATH WATER

theres pomes
live in files

that
wont
work

no matter how much 
i take them out
to 
another moonless dance
and
butcher their dahlia blackness
with
pound shop knives
on
the
dogging tarmacadam

and
its
the
offal i keep
to
read in the dirt
like
tea leaves

and no it says
youre not done yet

and i worry i been doing it all wrong
and all the meat is all ruined now

and i accidentally wrote roadkill

didnt i ?

and
spread it all out
unreadable 
on
machine
crushed 
gravel

where forests once sang

HARD TO REMEMBER IT ALL CLEARLY

walking back to school after lunch
198?
alone
duh

and theres this blind corner
where this big puddle builds
and girls
run round it
to not get splashed by traffic

today its dry tho
i might have double science
not sure
but there is no puddle

not of rain anyway

anyway theres this kid out in the road
p****** m***** i think his names was

or is ?

and hes fitting
epileptic or whatever
not sure
but hes gone and bitten thru his tongue

its off
laying there by his head
like something from the butcher

the pooling blood looks purple

hes not in my year
i dont remember doing anything
i was shut down
unphasable

theres two girls
twins
at the corner
hands over their mouths

traffic has stopped

i think i remember an ambulance coming

i was shut down
unphasable
and
i
walked on
to double science

i think it was a
wednesday afternoon
and 
what a class of tossers that was
