Essential Education
Well yes, I am red-blooded Female, land discovered We all are in the East And not afraid of anything Except the woman in the mirror (When she’s pissed) What you find out Is only your choice Angel haired Little drama boys What you don’t know Will only hurt you If you overreact The chain reaction […]
Vesuvius
Ash clouds make their way inside Flash heat burns my eyes You fade away, but heat stays Turns my face to dust Turns my brain to glass When Minerva’s owl fails to arrive
The sarcophagus
It was a problem of semiotics really Couldn’t read the sign But the instrument sung like cicadas in summer As dusty fireflies touched my skin It was like the expeditions to the pyramids Where the curse of the king punishes us Because we shouldn’t have been there After the last atomic priest has died
Complaints about a woman
Teacher, oh don’t leave those animals To run feral and throw their own faeces ’round (Only material they have) “I also cried, but I learnt” is an anthem To good conjugation And maintenance of an orderly past Which I support, at the headmaster’s direction Well, stack those Bravos On Page 1, you see we have […]
Albatross
Now I’ve been thrusted out A curse upon you It’s good to know what game to play When you bite too hard I’ll drop my tail And run faster Within and out I don’t believe in Karma But sometimes You strike ironic luck We all have roles Yours has a name in the DSM The […]
Pied
After long enough This blank canvas turns to splatter Fingers broken after walking Through doors too slowly Getting caught in the other side Of rooms No innocence of violence But I’m gentleman enough to know To leave the innocent alone My skin’s grown tight Over time, contractures Keep the world small But the poison Stays […]
The recipe
A blue marble One dough ball A spoiling orange And bitter essence Of ever-replicating Emerald mine dust After AI winter, not Minsky’s monster A black box monolith is no society But consensus is: The machines of hate have run We know where to find What makes us ever dumber Until it chases us around And […]
Push
These marionette fibres In your tortured muscles Push pull Heavy front A weakness of back Too tight jaws Excess slack Certain parts are special Because they get you closer to god? A magic man can’t create life On his own But push push push push Surely by now It’s a problem resolved Get off your […]
Millennium bug
As your eyes widen It’s nature and nurture Coddled and encapsulated Do you remember when this is how The future used to sound Your eyes or maybe my shoes Lift me up off the ground But I’ll be okay Once I come down I feel I’ve caught a Millennium bug Tug at my heartstrings Make […]
Biscuit Princess
There’s now too much I need to learn Too many islands left And shores to link Fire together Wire together Eyes dilated Thoughts disabled Senses drawn Assembled on the Last train home
Reddit Guru
I see you’ve read the dumb man’s Smart man’s runes online They ruin everything that’s built An empty conserve, a hollow shrine Stuff yourself with anything From his bony little fingers As his wrist goes in It can only go so deep You know there’s a pill For everything there is No condition too poor […]
Age of discovery
In his arrested development This lone ascetic Wakes with dirty hands Sheets float away But his shame remains On dry land in my Drowned World It’s just our new old nature Let me guide your hand With mine Draw maps And join mankind In the New World Valleys and troughs Drag the stylus through This […]
Silver
You ain’t got a split dioptre To place two things into focus When you’re making Synthetic mirror life On the other side of silvered glass Left-handed version Of the right hand path You ain’t got a split dioptre
Cotard’s Summer
This idea inside you It is viral Anti-vital It slowly suffocates you Like a python Well, what’s next Mademoiselle X? It’s a part of you Your own supply You say no need to spare Food for thought or body A little red bag Your yellow raincoat Pockets full of heavy grey slag It is your […]
Test of humanity
You are beautiful And you are needing But I am a little too empty And can’t make your ceiling Careful of how deeply you stick that hand Inside the cookie jar Fear is the mind killer Most men don’t get too far We bring only what we have Not much can fit inside At any […]
Garblified
I tried hard To dress like I won’t steal My tips worn at diagonal My socks thinned I’m not a thief I’m not a thief I belong here My pockets have holes I’m not wholly here Mouth noises Blobs, gestalts Oh, you can help? There’s no time Mouth noises I just stare Garblified
Somnistanbul
I got home and removed my claws In the waiting room are different laws Of what you can carry And what you can do When the distance is altered This place will fit two Because you should feel safe And you should feel larger Let me lay down first None of that ol’ “How’s your […]
Numbers Station
I’ve read kilometres of letters Of scrolls and things, that’ve never been I’ve had dreams of dying While waiting for words On number stations Waiting in the attic Sitting through the noise It isn’t free will, nor a choice 20 8 5 18 5 9 19 14 15 2 15 4 25 8 5 18 […]
Dimmesdale
It was his black swan No-one would have thought That empty feeling When a nice girl’s fallen But the icon of her name’s still pure All it took was a gander Obtuse, thoughts intrusive She has different faces, not moons In her eyes, no stars Only one’s surprise there’s No weeknight left to fallow Now […]
Spring
It’s spring outside A piercing ray of sun As the wind cuts right through me I’m purged of man and Full of letters sans The rise in my chest Or sunken heart The night when I was Looking up at the lamp Red through my eyelids As I lied in the dark I’ve deleted the […]
Leper
They say a man’s soul Is shown by that between his lungs But it’s the crippled trickle From a feeble mind To content on his tongue That matters Because information is power And we are all guilty ’til we’re tried Leper legion No pledge of allegiance Fear, disgust and fury Lead to leper deadhesion So, […]
A birthday
I raised you with my own saliva, words and wine Tried to imagine myself resenting you But in my mind’s eye there’s no light Your eyes are bright and your hair is ashen Like the chestnut haze of cigarettes You wrap these long arms around my body Like you knew that none were left Of […]
The mushroom prince
I’m a zebra sans her stripes A fox clad like a dog It’s a nightmare that’s recurring Sniffing death in the air Where my shovel’s buried in the ground A pair of human legs That morph past midnight A creature that runs Before it stands But what do you stand for? The rains have poured […]
Schoolbreak
This blood on my back It ain’t mine The bunny on my jumper, she has seen it all With her plastic button eyes I can feel your vision Vitreous as it begins to fade Do you see me now, do you see me now? Little boy, last day of school He cries grey, grip loose […]
