GUILT IS IN THE EYE OF THE SHAREHOLDER




'rolling just to keep on rolling
 i dont want to leave 
 this heaven so soon'
Mark Lanegan


this writing lark
  born of cliche fear

this posey parade
  coming out the chalk pit mire

its guilt-dumping
  in the pleasure cup

its dirty genesis seed
  seeking the right rot

so fling it chimp style
  at the observers glass

& name it something weepy 
  heavy with caveats

in the showground mirror of it all

TEN YEARS A BLOGGER 4/5






ten years ago i started this blog

i often forget where i got the name
i remember & smile

i have a tattoo of a hatchback on fire
i often forget why

it surprises me in the shower
i remember & smile

'a poem or pic a day until i die or dont'
a bold promise with caveat enough to keep

who doesnt love a good caveat ?

its looks the same today as back then
maybe its has more flames . . .

email notifications have become moribund
custom widgets are beyond my reach

i did enlarge the font following sound advice
but it has always been the same font

it is a time capsule unburied
it is a keeper of secrets shared
it is a mirror to truth - ha !
it is my reservoir / my slush pile 

poetry is not a process of conscious decisions

thank fuck
