TIMELESS DOWNER GROUND

&
the
repeating repeating repeating
pop & rock songs in my headpan
they recede recede & leave

their earworm hooks
taken on the bayou swell
of the luna tugged tide

its
the 

gothic country duets 

soft frisson elevation
that gently hold their 

timeless downer ground

TELL IT TO THE DUST

 

tell it to the dust 

no - cross-examine the dust

& headline-shout any results

in identikit bulletin foam

all channels

all nets

drones drop-off my lab-coffee

on the undead plastic lawn

~

if the past is another country

like  

    they  

        say  

it makes us all exiles

like the moon is

from earthy green

DREAM ANNEX

this morning is another country

i suspect a silent coup
or 
creeping transient borders

i declared something in the night

something
newly
contraband

subsequently
i was searched by dreams

and
i
wake
up

sore 

wondering
if salt and vinegar
still
come
in 
blue ?
