& neatly bagged up in the park path trees

GOD HAI-GA-GAKUI

god came from a cosmic accident

& fumbled there in the dark
with pronouns & carbon

& they are sorry


~


god is hollowed out 

by infinity planck units
& our dumb questions

a carbuncle standing in a sun storm
a singularity with a politik lean-to

& they are sorry


~


gods parts

god eyes god mouth god legs

god has the most cake

no - thats from a song

& they are sorry

HARD NEWS

once you seen them
chipmunks make squirrels

tree
rats

with a
cut-rate
high-street
hairdo

sorry

APOLOGY FROM THE OTHER SIDE (SPORK GIBBONS)

dear next generations

we were 
just

cutlery monkeys

hungry and jealous

juiced and crazy

on the nod
in polyester
and plywood

blinded
by
the
information cascade

drowning
in
the
junk mail brown envelope ppi rain

and short sighted
in
the

hollywood backdrop glare

and
we

couldnt

make

it

rhyme

in time

we are so so sorry about that

( ps
  we hear 
  the fallout
  will make for
  amazing sunsets )

reaction is - duct tape
              over
              the
              webcam

reaction is - read some history
              read some 1984 
              for reassurance
                 that  
                 things 
                 have 
                 been 
                 this 
                 hysterical 
                 before

and tho thats no so great is it

theres 
progress 
to hold onto - light
               in
               the 
               margins

even chomsky admits to hope

and
  it
    might
      still
        be 
          possible 
            to 
              live 
                in 
                  peace
         and
       explore
        space
       together

    so  very  sorry
    epic  regretful 
    and 
              wiser
