FIRST THINK BEST THINK

first thought best thought

& all that

used to be
when i slacked myself
down onto the defaults

was an image of running animals i saw
on fire or generating fire
like will o wisps

blame sickness
blame the wasp factory

nowadays
when i power down the giganoggin
& channel the ether buzz

& its a handgrenade i see
where my heart used to be

& i know
i shat out
the pin

spoon caught on a rib spur

DELIRIUM TAPAS VOL 11

me & sick friend

well

we compared symptoms

like twisted top trumps it was

tea stain

pee stain

on the tshirt shore

~


i hear neighbours dumb arriving

& i think HAND GRENADE

i hear news / see the sadness

& i think HAND GRENADE

& so on

curl round it / throw it / i dont know

they never even work out in video games
