Verse
clicks & careers
I love it
when things
go ‘Click’
-Shades of snapped twig,
& a fog light
shines through
this distortion
,
yes, it’s a comforting
sign & sound
that reminds my feet
‘There’s ground’
-Thank God I’m not into contortion
…
burn the culprit
When your cows
go dry
& your crops
all fail,
when you exclaim
in despair
at the plight
of the whale
…
When your house
burns down
& your cat
gets HIV,
please leave God alone
for once
-Let’s blame poetry
…
beggars bay leaf
Crime,

if you’re good
at being bad,
& stalks
they only talk back
if you’re another stalk
or mad
…
Most roads
-Yer, those
don’t lead to Rome,
& all slugs
are snails
without a home
…
Oh crime,
it only pays lad
if you’re good
at being bad
…

Osmosis

the
only
way
to
read

put
your

on

&
absorb
the
ink
straight
into
your
mind

Try it
