I AM NOT HAVING A ROSY BACKFLASH

revolution 

from my bed
in your head

wherever

it WILL be televised

but i doubt i will be there

~

the devils in the details
but thats not all hes in
hes gone centrist
in the apathy malaise guesthouse
off the empathy bypass
england SW1

~

& my anger is homeless
is in emergency housing
exiled in the resignation hotel
SS something-nowhere

liberal haven

micro nation

one whole bungalow wide

SHOTGUN MORNING

wired & tired 

on 

the
tablecloth starting blocks

empty starting gun goes 

      CLICK

morning coffee shouts 

    GO GO GO

it must be talking
to someone else


~

  because 

something drew a circle around me

i hear shotguns in the distance
& drink the sunshine on the bed

  because
something drew a line around me

&

i

feel

machines on the breeze

of 

the revolutionary dead

SUPERMARKET CAFE OBS

supermarket cafe
  &
i am kinda hiding 
  &
i am kinda disguised
  &
i take my place at the window

  & 
the museum feeling creeps in
like dusk creeps in
  in 
  winters 
  turgid 
  pm
  fail

  & summers under-rug dust is free
to cataract the daytime tv


~


they follow their kipple carts
out down the hatchback rows

trapped in fashion
    &
the madness of ads

new bucket

old water

happy new year

bogofs

keeping

revolution

at bay

& like i said before
i am so full with memories
i am bursting like a child
