Olfactory Evoked Recall
A perfect blue
Above.
Green on silver
Concrete
Silk distance
Shard swept
Petals groomed
For the wind.
Fumed curls
From the copper
Factory
Somehow entitles
Visions of childhood.
The fragrance
Of things lost
Stands still in the street.
Infinite memories
You feel it.
Olfactory evoked recall

The Real Hell
Fall free and slow
Into the furnace.
For every insect body crushed
Or flywing scoffed
As a child,
It qualifies
As something unique
To humans.
This torture is bliss
In its certainty.
The torture of them.
Turtleshell ashtrays,
Elephant tusk instruments,
Shark fin soup.
Refuse the excuse of instinct.
Survival can be acco...

Skull Profit
For Commissioner Moses Binoga
Leader, Uganda Anti Human Sacrafice Task Force.
Police are pleading for sanity
In a country of wild beauty.
As concrete climbs upward
And wealth begins to form.
But what happens when all capital
Becomes rare?
Redesigned?
When the profits curl uncertainty?
Well.
They cut off the head and genitals,

The Moon, 2211
The sky will glow soft streaks
Of purple and green
From an artificially inseminated
Atmosphere.
It will be
An industrial colony at first.
Workers, rustbeard scientists,
Cricket legged astronauts.
Then the rest will come.
Stiff lip families and
Financiers, senior executives,
The first settlers.
The worst.
While the poor back o...

This Poem Has Nothing To Say
Some words seem to
Fit together
Even when they
Do not rhyme.
It could be something
Alien
A quick fix
An aggressive impression
Of a clearly superior language:
Mathematics.
That dink in the cosmic spring
Untangling the mystery
One dying scientist
At a time.
And when it does occur
At C.E.R.N.
At the BLACK HOLE ...

Curlew On The Breaches
Flail.
Current picking

Slow
Air gliding
Breeze creep.
With no
Knowledge of
Singularities
There is
Nowhere
Too soon
To fly.

Lung Sulk
Deep silver scene as the sun moves in.
Plastic shaded angles cover and smooth
Through the drench of branches
And multi coloured animals, uprooted
From the slow cool night
And now lung sulking in the shadows.
Creep forced by the skeletons
Of their lost relatives
Run over one summer
Or captured for entertainment.
The memories beat
And swell ...

The Moon: Golfballs, astronaut shit
For the organic and furious
A question and a sure thing
Is divided by nothing but time.
The moon could kill us all
With an inch of its bravery
Enslave us all in wonder forever
For the simple act of falling
Further and without hesitation
Into the darkening shack
Of mad curiosity
But instead
We have penetrated
The mysteries of this...

Sometimes I Am Not Born
Close your eyes and it is there:
The possible.
Everything you recognize
And everything you cannot fathom.
Infinite differences limp and spark
Throughout the cosmic strings
That hold it all together
Where time surrenders all impression
And what we know as life is lost
In everchanging variations.
Far away they click and rattle,

Voice In The Dark
Sometimes I hear it
Spread its breath
In a corner of the room.
It amplifies the glow
And tint of naked silver
Breaching the vestige of shade.
Sweet tumours of noise
In the granite silence,
The perfect disaster,
A civil war of the senses.
Sometimes I hear the voice
I know does not exist
Rest its broken throat
In a debt of word...

In The Shadows Of Mountains
Several thousand years of built up force
It takes to make a mountain.
The popular friction of time
Surging forward on all sides.
Pushing mass upwards toward the sky.
Strict, unobstructed
As if freedom exists in this form.
As if the earth, wants.

The Plan Of Nature
An original glimpse of morning light
Cools quietly
In a slow tipped ebb
Or brim resuming
On the surface of smooth backed insects.
A familiar mist
Hangs light shades of blue
And purple diluted
On an otherwise indifferent canvas.
But a flaw in the plan of nature
Becomes apparent
When the sparks light up
In the city distance.

I Made The Earth Uncomfortable With My Hammer
A place three fields across
From where I was living,
The resting place of a certain stone
Face first to the sun.
Whenever I felt the world break loose
I took my hammer from the shed
And brought it to that field where
I stood at the foot of the rock
And beat it quick at first
Then slow bursts with each blow
A fraction of rage evaporated.

Now And Then
Every now and then
I get the impression
I am somewhere else.
Although my bones are in position
For the shake that will break me
There are places I have not seen.
I could have been there
Before if I had tried
And not relived the world
That whispers when I sleep.
The murmur and creek
Of dreams failing on a beat,
A single misgiving

Infants Become Skeletons
The value of something undermines
What we try to do here.
It lives and occurs, becomes the cord
Between the dreams you serve and the dreams
You fail to receive.
You see the people
In orbit of their
Origins.
As they lie down in their glue,
New for one more day.
And all the tears and smiles
For a chance of love,

Look Back
The fall of morning tumbles gently
In a drift and glimmer
Of silver lightshade,
The glue sap sticking to the day
In the form of static.
Passing cars thrift an image on the wall
Of someone not looking back but
Always moving forward.
Ready for terror and joy.
All the wonderful things
Of which we have been warned:

Everything I Am Not And More
Who are you?
What do you want?
First you took my girlfriends
And now you take my sleep.
There is simply no escape
From the burden of your presence.
The grimace of your whisper in my ear
And the scenes you create
To squeeze the mind quick and burst
The very soul
I tried so hard
To keep from breaking.
Some call you paranoia
But for m...

Ever After
Expected chaos at the break.
A slow loop resumes
Beyond the sudden fulcrum
Of skull and skin.
The light at the end
Or the glow from the start,
The same pure blur as before
Full with the colour of wonder
Occurs in refusal of thoughts
Too wretched to melt.
Thoughts that build a world
Outside this failing one.
Thoughts that exist on...

Euphrasia
The light there cools blue streaks
As it climbs the side of the hill.
She has her drawing pad and brushes
And slinks her way up.
At the top the view
Is neither proof nor reduction
That the world is still alive.
She begins to paint anyway
Quick flicks of the brush
Ascending scars of blue and green
Listening to the wind,
Waiting for the land...

The Censored Sky Of The City
A few miles into the city
And things become open
Very quickly.
The sky, little delicate springs,
Even conversation.
Its most apparent at night.
The colours are justified.
A million shades of solar shadow
In a glimpse: uncensored
And the clicking of cattle
Settling in a field
Determined that nothing should happen.

In The Fizz Of Winter
At first light the mist moves quietly
In a straggle of smoke and colour
From black to grey, smooth, unburduned
With a shudder of traffic light sighs.
A magpie strides in the background
Of an empty garden,
It starts to rain
Free form: a warning
Of the storm to come.
Branches crackle on the cool wind
When all air surges upward
And sunlight i...

Of the way heroes 'laugh to cam'
After a massive tragedy
And then the sidekick nods
And the crowd cheer for the victory
Of the Better One.

As they do,
The master plan
Artificial natural disasters.

Blank
There could be words
Hidden somewhere
Deep beneath
The surface of the page.
Little fragile creatures,
Terms and profits
Comfortable, alone.
However connections are severed
Between us and our definitions.
The words themselves resent
The beasts we have created
Out of them.
As they crackle and fizz
Then melt and dissapear.

The Chants Of Insects
It occurs in the slur of morning
When the birds have been fed
And survivors of the feast
Wriggle and squeak on the surface.
Bits of insects roll and search
For pieces of themselves
In the bloodwet grass
As the sun bursts.
Waiting for the rain
To soothe and manoeuvre
Those that are left
Chanting on the grass.
But they are not afra...

So
I have never smuggled drugs
Through Frankfurt airport
For one eyed Dominicans
Or watched pornography in 3D.

In an argument reguarding
The burning of furniture
Even though the cold
Of that park
Was outstanding in January.
I have never cheated
In a televised cluedo tournament
However I did come second

Children Of Ghosts
In the purest hours
Of still thought and echoes
Where questions end
And graveyard begins.
Bereaved and better people
Jig to the beat
Of lost words, confused
By the soil in which
They diminish.
Children of ghosts
Real ghosts underground
Cry and whisper
In a shadow of stone.
They cry not for loss
Or doubt or nostalgia

He Heard The Stars
Just as the waves broke
And the shores poured in
A candle was lit in the distance.
He walked barefoot across
Beach rocks and flitch.
He heard the stars
Beating, swaying, ticking
And the lick of darkness
Broad above, spread out
In the glint of midnight.
He slowly approached the shine
Each foot forward gave clarity to the flame
Until he ...

In The Dead Of Sunlight
Honey drip tar sunlight
Stale smoke crib fumes
Shade breaks cruel shadows
Sprawling on the wall.
Noise clinks outside
Time ticks turns under
Back to front, full
Closing further.
Face crease in the mirror
Hair falls thin ribbons
Floor filled strips
Blowing in the breeze.
Waiting for light to sigh
And the darkness take over

The Little Red Ball
This is not a poem.
It is merely a theory.
Just try to imagine
You are in a room
For an entire lifetime
With nothing to do
In the first twenty years.
Concrete brickwork.
Plastic windows let light it
However no images
Then a hatch opens.
A little red ball bounces in
The boredom broken, the hatch closes.
The ball brings you

Odium
You cry for the wrong reasons.
The treatise you worked on
Failed from the start.
You shed a tear for the tulp
And backed away.
Sudden, as if by accident
You left at night
In a sulk of stars.
The apocalypse
Of your written words
Fell as melting leaves
Outside my door.
The knocking of goodbye
With no way to answer.
A hatred of ma...

Nightbird
The nightbird calls, crestfallen
Covering a nest in shadow.
Slight strings of glint
Peek from a window reflection.
Everything that exists
Is somewhere out there.
The flowers and killers.
Planets, rabbits,
Stationary, everything dead,
Alive or indifferent
Resides in the space
Beyond my window.
Censored families asleep in their jewellery...

Nothing happens for a reason
And nothing happens all the time.

On the sexual exploits
Of the modern sloth.
There will be ham and wine
At the celebration.
Someone will tie my shoelaces
For a small fee.

Early Learning
He would walk eleven paces
Do a twirl and touch the ground
When he was ten
Or he felt bad things would happen.
He could not step on the cracks
Of the pavement so
He leaped from gap to gap
Followed by the erratic
Clicking of his fingers.
The people on the street
Would see him
Twirling, clicking, leaping,
Bending down to the ground

If Women Grew On Trees
The plant itself
Would be diverse
In its beauty.
The blondeflower
Ribbon clipped
And glowing
With the scent of blossom.
Or nightshade brunette
Teeming with starlight
In the company of red tipped
Curling petal rinds.
But if women grew on trees
They would not survive for long
With a chorus of neglectful men
Empty water cans in ha...

You are not the new dictator.

Gullcry On The Harbour
What do they want?
The gulls
When they cry.
What do they need?
I hear them
Skitter and clasp
On the east pier.
Perch rich and steady
Among the unblushing
Curling of waves
And pebble scent.
Comfortable there.
Tucked in like snuggards
But all the while
Whining.
What they need
They do not know.
For they are...

Death To The Literati
What happened?
The language I used to understand
Has left
In a privilege of mist.
Now I must relate
To second hand translations.
Spoken thought was something
To be admired
But now diluted
In a flurry of gym shirts.
The words are lost
In plastic muscle and pop lyrics.
The dead are once again.
They are armed with pens
And will no...

Wolves And Matchboxes
Awake from the same dream
You told me about
The one where you die
At Calin Market.
You drip lipstick on your skeleton
And we embrace
Under a garden of stars
Where the wolves wait
For me to leave
Then rip you to pieces.
Why do you blame me
For loss of flesh?
If not for the price
Of Asian matchboxes
I'd be eaten too.

The Laughing Neanderthal
The first neanderthal to laugh
Passed his days in aching.
A presocratic understanding
Formed as loss
In the gully of his sorrow.
He saw the future
Of humour
Rotting in leaves and deerskull
And the dying of his tribe.
A sky too open to nourish.
The pure blue of it.
Over the ground, bones
The skeletons of friends and lovers.

I Heard Her Sigh By The Fireplace
She set her glass
On the mantelpiece
And fixed her eyes on the flame.
The courage of the coal
As it flicked and sniggered.
The madness of its desperation
She percieved as genius.
But something was not right.
She gulped her wine
Too enthustiastically
Forced the cigarette
Into submission.
She had to walk away.
The heat was just...

Enforces the sordid

Of petty compromize.

Of inside society.
Families burning their last candle.

Nothing Is Ugly In The Dark
Whats the night for anyway?

All light is ominous.
Shadows have no standards.

Reflections of better days.
Because nothing is ugly

Physical vision
Is a product of closure.
When darkness is multiplied
The numbers are wonderful.
Forty layers of shade

Folding the robes of your pyjamas
In the snap cold morning

Of words falling from your lips
Like animals from a ridge.

Keeping You Warm
Tell me again
The wishes of you're childhood.
From the slow ebb of a dream
A racket of pang to conquer.
Ugly beside your body
I broke the rule of nature.
Curling into you
Like a terrible virus
Of your beauty.
But looking back now
It was worth it
Keeping you warm
For the better person
You deserved.

Nocturne
Constuction had begun
On a four story country home.
Five fathoms from the lake.
A catalyst of shadows
From my bedroom window.
And when the staff called:

Down from my window and walk
Through the fields of stars
Where nightbirds hissed
The gentle rush of my path.
It was quiet in there
On a bioclast chair

The perfect colour
Shade grey rising
From a tired hill
In the form of smoke.
Walking for the sake
Of some frail destination
With echoes of graves and lovers
Covering the paces.
Every breath dreaming of relevance
Until a silk of stillness
And strangle of flowers
Beats the path finished.
A feint light forms

The Burning Of The Sting
He stood for an hour in silence
And tried to recall
The last time her glance
Had shadowed him.
Flat back in the park
He remembers
The unfurnished blossom
And copperfumes
Of the smelting city.
They were happy then.
Swatting off wasps
In the brazen heat
Of that afternoon.
But a wasp landed quick.
Perched on his elbow

Stacked up like jack mackerel
More product than human.
Groomed for consumers.
Steady as the dead.

Of invisible chains,

With stamp collections.
The slaves are happy with hoarstones
And sendal garments.
They are happy with fashion.
Because the slaves
Cannot see the cage

Atoms and bastards.
The future
Cannot come too soon
For the Drake Parade.

Quad dimensional
Magniloquence.

Realized
With a jowlsag smile
Event horizon.
And the human rumour ended
By the eye of the worm.

Out in the vast
As I am here

And you won't judge me
For my teeth and posture
And I won't judge you
For you're timing.

Palace Of The Palatal
A word.
What is it?
In the presence
Of the world
A sentence
Could be anything.
Wars fought for words
Names, places.
Clause and effect.
Palace of the Palatal
For the honour of nothing.
And some words have wings
Families, friends.
Some words
Are more important
Than us.
And some words
Do not mean a thing.

Of a massacre
Bird grin, human laughter.
Rock salt perfume

Words That Sigh
It's important to point out
That bringing masking tape
On a first date
Is not considered style.
And squashing a slug
With the auto biography
Of Trevor Mcdonald
Is certainly not couragious.
This may seem ridiculous to you
But in some parts of the world
This is considered objective observationism.

And all it's cronies
In stylish clothing.
The last wish
To become alone
All at once.
Fuel for the tomb.

But how does now happen?
What is the reason
For this existence
To mean something?
To go back and forget it
All over again
Is a dream to kill

Dismember the stress
Of smoke stock body.
A face for each day.
A brain in a packet.
Discard the wrapping.
Stepped on, forgotten.
Expression of wilt.
Little by little
Cough lung up and scatter
Blood pillow for youth
Stale craze for the rest
Enveloped forever
In a moment too cruel
To remember.

Leaps into form
A beast alive.

Parading hip steady
In a fake tan marathon
To make ugly girls
Feel ten again.

Clamour of light
Aborted logic
From the severed objective
Plume of confusion

How long have you lived?
Under sex you wrote robot.
Thats good.
We encourage irony here.
You have yourself as reference
And your phone number has a 'the' in it.
We require heavy lifting
And long periods of standing up.
Beards are not essential
As full training is provided.
You may drink heavily
As long as you tell ...

Existentialullaby
Go to sleep.
The darkest hours
Shall be fortune
In a smoke of loners.
Do not cry.
The weary will be
Strong for the rest of us
Left in the twist.
Hush now.
I am here as servent
Of your slumber.
Gentle is the mind
That weeps of madness.
Go to sleep now.
Where you have been before
You shall be
Again.

Notes On Ed Gein
Exhumed the dead.
Made various things
Out of humans.
Bowls, clothes,
Necklaces, lampshades.
Then began to kill.
Bodies strung
Upside down
Like animal carcus.
Decapitated.
Ten skulls found in the kitchen.
Decaying faces
Hanging on the wall. Some
With lipstick drawn on them
And a shoebox of noses.

Long Gone Crawling
Cynical to the brim
Love lease of life
Leaving evil trends
Of degenerates
Broke and broken.
Heart cramped and static.
The tension of memory
Pawn thought delluded
Energetic failure
Or an old piece of music.
Long gone crawling
Dismal matter of fact.
And the distance peels away
From all sides.

Thinking In Image.
Full stop shockle.
Sandfoot sunrise
Horizon.
Shallow curls of water
Ankle brimming.
Shin sprinkled.
Rocks at the bottom
Flat animated.
Colour specks reflected
Neat warmth to form
Cotton skin shimmer.
Yawn sprawling.
Luxurized.
The possibility of ham
And wine.
A granding.
Bored on purpose.
Certain comfort.

The It Of It.
Under mustard sun.
Slight skip of lightening.
Dead heat and honey thunder.
Lonely as a bone.
Sheet metal whispers
Overrated fables fabricating
Meaning keeping dreamers
Insane to themselves.
Thought provoked
Silent annihilation
Of reason.
Desolate dark skies and dreary days.
Faint and cosmopolitan
Depression of senses
Lacking any stru...

Sullen fallow hollow
Reckless shadow tremor
Moving smoothly.
Not a lot of vision.
Stick thin wisdom.
Sullen fallow hollow
Technical menace
Rendered useless.
Fruits of disorder morethan
Capable of failing
The last glance of sad fathom.

Car Crash Blowjob
The silver blue car bellowed on the road. Lights flashed passing per milisecond.She pulled faster. He slammed on the accelerator. One hand out the window fisting the sky. Frictionessly she grappled at it. The music roared. Backseats rattling with empty lager bottles and broken picture frames. She changed hands. Bent down further. Gave it a lick. He waved at the sky in return, rhythm. She began ...

Fire On The Outskirts Of Perth.
800 hectares so far.
It has crossed to Victoria also.
This poem will finish
Before the fire.
The planet is trying
To kill itself
But will inevidably fail.
Not due to our intervention
But
Because of the rain.

A Small Encounter Whilst Bringing Back Gravy To The Shop
I was walking in the mist through Bolton market. A man bigger than me pushed past me. Neither of us aplogized.
"Aren't ya gunna say sorry?" he hollered. His face was pure war. Bigger than earlier.
"Okay I'm sorry.......I'm sorry that your bald and ugly." I said. He punched me in the smile. I fell. He went to walk away. I jumped up.
"Hey you prick, you punch like a nun." I shouted.

Sanity Is A Crushed Butterfly
I will ask you now
To grab my mind
With your
Thought claws
Eat my soul
With your
Thought cutlery
Let us consume
Everything together
Including ourselves
Leave nothing
For the rich to eat
But death
Start a cult
For the reason
Of starting a cult
Burn our bodies
Side by side
For sanity
Is a crushed b...

In Times Of Wretched
I have loved
In my own way
And in theirs.
It's something I've tried
Often
But not enough
To remain
Apparently.
It always gives shit
This paradox
If you can't do it first
Then you just can't
Be alive
So my doubt
Will keep me company
In times of hardship
And soberness
And make me so
In times
Of wretched.

This Chair Will Still Be Here
With ratching legs
Persuing history
I sit and and drink
THIS IS IT
With my drink I write
As my chair watches
Without judgement
Mute and one
With something meaningful
Above all else
ETERNAL
It knows
It's costume
And desguise
Will be here
Long after I'm gone.
Play that again Chopin

I Want All The Whores In The World To Be Happy
I want every living prostitute
In the entire world
To feel delighted in life.
Surely they deserve it more
Than any banker.
I want all the whores
In the world to be happy.
I want them to wake and smile
Like any relaxed christian.
I want every sex paid man and woman
To go asleep
Looking forward
To the following day.
I want them to wa...

Splinters
So I'll tell you something that happened. It was a couple of years ago and it was early in the morning. I woke up quickly in a sweat. I was dreaming about PILLOWS. Rows and rows of PILLOWS. All lined up in a park at night. There was somebody else there but I can't recall who they were or if they were friendly or not. So the PILLOWS looked at me with tiny cotton eyes and enough eyebrow material ...

If I Wanted
If I wanted to be real then I'd find myself an ugly woman. Have little ugly children with her that resemble reality. Get a job. Get married. Masturbate at two in the morning about my wife being asleep. Go to work early to catch up on boredom. Have friends. Get divorced. Masturbate about getting divorced. Eat bread. Listen to pop music. Buy a gun. Masturbate about shooting my boss or my ex wife....

Out At Sea
Sail waving in a mild wind
Clouds yawn at daybreak
Floating in a bucket of wood
Trail of fresh paint leaking
Flickering silent breeze
Stop before the rocks break break break
When the water runs out we will all drown in fire
As the boat collapses
Mind is absent
The world is inside out out out
Ocean opens up
Moment of scenery
Twelve dead...

Reward
There is reward in a leap
Worthy of leaping.
But to surface in the wrong
Is to wear bat skin
In the dark
And expect to see.

The Not Yet Chained.
Constantly following tomorrow
Barefoot on chalk pavement
Standing at regular intervals
And watching.
For something inanimate
Subdued or chained
Furniture from an old house
Nettles from childhood fields
A familiar cloud.
Intemperate weather
Hot and cold
Sun and moon at once
People are passing
They carry fire
To the exit
Of t...
