FIVE MINUTE GOWPEN

 



& everywhere
nascent possessions
posit that themselves
are the bonnaroo

& here they barrel in
hot for unboxing

& their fifteen min gowpen
of a gushing febrile fan

that fades
like a snake glides
into a dark pool

MICE OF OURSELVES




'You sound like youre from nowhere.'

David Goodis, The Burglar



we have made 
mice of ourselves

afraid of 
the machines above

no mind
the cannibal holocaust

behind the pastel dream
of the faded ads

on end terrace
masonry gables

sky pie for supper
in the babel shade

ENTROPY CALLING




these are 
tomorrows golden days

cos
everything 
falls apart

one way or another

despite velcro
cement and rebar
and 
our 
hungry clutching paws

and i cant always be a machine
when time goes bouncing
all
around
these indoor rooms

so today is next weeks
halcyon seaside dream

and
now
whats
this
thing
now 

coming always toward my eyes . . ?
