PUNCTUAL SUMMER

summer is on time

& unusual because of it

& 

in the heat 

is a hiatus of things
& 

all the muggers 

lie down with the lambs
& 

crane flies come inside

tired of the wild grasses

& 

we have ice cream

& 

nothing is urgent

& 

everything 

is 

simple & still & poised & placed

as a sofa facing

a quiet tv thats on

 

l.o.v.e.

beyond bodies

beyond borders

beyond school dinners & orders

beyond blinkered lobbies

       antibodies & marauders

       love

inside our

failing meat

glows souls

prevailing heat

       called love

       nurse it

       disperse it

       dont ignore it

       or

       deplore it

cos soon we'll all be stardust again

WE ALL KNOW

the yellow circle
we all know
heats my face
with
a
heat
we all know
and
the wind that comes in and steals the heat
is
a
wind
we all know
and
the light
it
leaves
that
lights us
is
a
light
we all know

Everybody's Hive by Carlos Gershenson 2006

SICK DYNAMO

worry 

that sick dynamo

runs
you
in
circles all the long day

steals your words
all your fast comebacks gone

takes the heat out of people
takes 
the
purpose
from
your
legs

leaves your boots empty
as your butterfly belly

and
shits
out
fear
