SICK DUCKS NICHE CAVITIES

i got my sick ducks
in a semblance row

& i forced-march them
thru the niche cavities
of government administration

or what passes for it
in these hijacked days

i realise now
i was grating myself
for an overlords brunch

& in the kitchen
the tap drips 

like a clock
into the strategy sponge

DOMESTIC POPLING 4, A PILL PACK POP

 

DELIRIUM TAPAS VOL 13

royal family -

turn yourselves OFF

then ON again

might help

or might chew you up like magnetic tape

ha

like throat lozenges

tack up

& dissolve in swallowed rain

~

a weatherman quit

cos the forecast was dreary

killers kill & bankers bank

& of course vice versa

politicians bodysurf in

on polished turd waves

& someone threw ducks

all dead

at the living vegans

~

i dreamt

my gloves have yindles

tinioned back 

from the wrist grip

& 

i hear sirens all the time

heading to those

who need them
