MORNING REPORT 104

& its morning

& already

Time is OFF

the ticking frontier 

the kinetic edge

the tippity-tip 

of the quantum spear 

us in its grey turbulence

play at catch-up

with the millwheel push

faking relevance 

with the construct

of reservations

in the sacred mulch

of our appointment books

WITHOUT ANY SATISFACTORY CONCLUSION

& 

if it feels kinda like
my face is detached & floating
off off & away somehow

i can for now
be sure at least
the bathroom mirror 

will catch it again

for me to regard again
in a dumb-numb surprise
that turns every time
into

a

harsh & biased 
critical appraisal

without any satisfactory conclusion

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
