POPLINGS FROM THE BACK OF THE HOUSE

 

the ground ! 

starved & bit & spiked & beat

detail for days

~

my reflection

dark in the glass of an unhung Klee

i dont even ponder it

~

in another dawn standoff

rogue turf

attritions

cement isobars

LOOKING APOCRYPHAL

when your reflection
looks wrong
looks colourised
looks apocryphal
&
looms like a hangover
out the dim glass
action figure perfect
& action figure wrong

you wonder

how was that
ever forged
into something
that worked ?

DISMISSED

   was
  going
   to 
 write about
   the  human condition
 our  failing experiment

 it was going to rhyme 

  tweet     wealth
    eat     health
   meat    stealth

         see ?

 but 
 i 
  am 
   not  feeling generous today
 and  not sure we deserve reflection

     so
 i  am going to listen to the same record
  i  heard eight times already today
 because  i feel like  i am in a bubble
            or
     a museum
         or
 a  starship  passing
      with 
  better things  to do
