NATURE POP



god
forbid
i
unwittingly reverse
into
a
reserved parking spot
at
the
intelligent design
activities center

but
the silhouettes
of
sky born seagulls

well theyre 
just like
calligraphic strokes

freed fragments
of
fountain pen cursive
escaping over 
the bungalow tiles

and
they
blow
my
weak and loaded
jelly and formica
haunted pork
mind

BETWEEN



between

gods
old paper
mumbo

off
white
hospital
walls

the pantomime 
bipolar
cage fights
in
parliament

and the eternal
daily
slap
of
laborious metabolising

doves collect twigs
for new nests

cats hide
from imagined thunder

black faced gulls 
look out in silence
from tv eaves
masked like mimes

then

10 min monsoon

wet sock

DEAD PALACE




  the council 
  almost 
  got it right -

locals didnt want
the swimming pool 
torn down
for 
supermarket chain

  but
the swimming pool 
was torn down
and the 
supermarket chain
built its 
steel and glass

  and then
  duh 
  of course
the council stopped 
the supermarket chain
moving in there

so the palace sits empty

dead

and wind flown seagulls
eating market throwaways
rest
on
its
stillborn steel
and
shit
down
its
new glass

OUTSIDE TESCO'S WINDOW




theres
a
cement road
  in the sky

  and
seagulls soar in its caves
  white
  grey
  and 
  rigid 
    like greasy gliders

and
the
modern orange flats
  are
  new 
  like a shoe box is new

  under
brushed aluminium clouds
