ABOUT THE BATHROOM BASIN

the stubble in the bathroom basin

clumps up into stubborn flotillas 

the strength in its numbers
is how to resist the kettling flow

well i got time . . . 

 

the rush of cold water

will shift them eventually

like cold water 

shifts everything eventually

if its blasted on

a shaved naked skull

TO PARAPHRASE DYLAN THOMAS A BIT

we do go gently 

into 

an anticyclonic gloom

straw grass 

razed to stubble

inside the electric tether

~

meteors & rage 

forked diluted

by bluelight nightlife

& frail deeds 

forgotten drown

in the greenwashed bay
