My Enemy.

Ruinous wretch.
Rainbow slipstream.
Never been punished.
And for that matter,
Probably never will be punished.

Ingrained pugnacity, pink slip placement complex
Makes me sick.
Roadblock head, square and alarming,
Take from it the bouncy castle whir reverberating inside the walls
Of pretentiousness.
Take from it the apoplexy that draws no small amount of catalyst into its dire chamber.
Sometimes none at all.
Take from it the hypocrisy and the second set of lines orbiting the clamorous hooves.
And you are left with a robotic nuisance-
Father, Father, if only Mother were more like you,
With an eye for a malleable mass,
And with a minty resolve.

Mother, the bringer of eggs,
And where eggs crack, the basket softens.

Mother did crack,
And the fractures ran doglegged, cracking, spreading, unrelenting, disease.
Living.
Lining with self-impressed toxin the inner insulation of the skull,
Where candles of epiphany burn down to streaks of insignificant wax,
Lyrically impaired,
Lost in a city sea of lights and reflections from that fluorescent arse.
Fake in its glow, artificial air
Musk around the unwitting family of Frankensteins.

Foul electricity.
Great White Shark pupils.
Ears deafened by an envelope of cacophony.

The Hall of Mirrors a Narcissistic smokescreen, these reflections leave me awake and choking,
In the midst of gutless authorisation.
Invaders' footprints take the longest to wash from the carpet,
Especially when sun-bleached in the eyes of the blind.
I am awake and choking, dagger stiller beneath my pillow.

Infinity/2011/Drawbridge/Bill Murray Forever/25 hours.

If today lasted forever
the biro messages you melt into your felt skin
would be pain free tattoos
the day would last forever
and pain would be temporary enough.

Protract! X.

Photogenic Sneezing.

Thunder shall provoke
And longer days evoke
Exciting ice cream exclamation
And I shall sneeze exhaustion everywhere
Because of the strong light
And I shall also photosynthesise and renew
Myself in strength and exchange.

Pleasure in a circle of deciduous forest.

I shall propel myself backwards and infiltrate
my vertebrae and elasticise
myself
I shall tsunami my pupils and their infinite blankness
And make it good
For my brain
Which I shall also infiltrate and elasticise.
I will feel better, haha.
Hello and welcome.
Wow, I feel better,
I’m not bored.

Green and Swollen/Nice.

A hole punched head
Slow motion
Leak free dark juice wet leaves soaked then crisp now
Break like the rest of us and jail break too
Warm wind passes through broken countenance
Crescent moon bright teeth another bright light
Eyes closed as well
Body sways, head swims
Feel the moment wash over you like backwashed pebbles
Clean shave, smooth rock
Air easy, air heavy, air wet and sweaty
Even the water inside dances.
Air the soles of your shoes
Air at last so pertinent
One reason, people united
Temporary but beautiful
Art air, facial grazing
Graze on the moment
Swallow and open eyes
Let in light, charred retinas will preserve
The greenness of the grass.
Howl like a dog.
Heart beats with renewed purpose,
This is life!
Ah, fuck.

Shut Door/Open Windows.

Landscape of steam, submit palette life!
Wispy revolutionaries
Were we (in sweet days, in salty nights)
And
We still are

I’m sure.
90%.

The day bakes outside,
Organic and well versed.
I know not the smell of ink or sweat
Not truly.
10%.

The Penny Jar.

Where did it go?
To the dogs, to the dentists,
In a murmur of halitosis.
It is with the eels, scattered amongst the footprints
Of thieves!
Lost over a thousand horizons –
The notion nauseates, un-complementary and um-imaginative.
It followed the other bitter lemmings.
Sulphuric acid streams beneath downcast eyes,
Washes havoc,
Stinging and dry is the revolving door.
It followed countless excuses
On their way out of that mess
And into dissolution.
Naïve romance burgeoned on frantic and classic
Disappointment
Before abandoning hollow flutes and clipper ships
To sling tear duct ice bomb glance magnet sea drops
To swim with airy, tidy horror.
It abducted, from the night, soap and water.
It left me clammy and useless in a dirty shell
Whose lunacy is the chemical denier of class.
It magically disappeared
Like New Years Resolutions –
So early.
And in a misty swarm of deodorising particles
With their endearing glint,
And charming finger painted room dust,
I continue trying to repel the rueful vignetting
And to keep the gun in its dreary, brick red holster.

Romantically Barbecued.

Pick a route through the valley walls
Earth mauve, skies salmon
Underwater breathing.
A route to happiness,
And through the eyes, optometrist fondness and optometrist kindness .
In times of blossom,
Paint a happy picture, pick a route as such, through the blossom, inside the stars, between the ears.

When the Second Hand Plummeted in the Soft Treacle Air and the Day was Strange.

The strange day was between neutral and chalky alkali,
stale smells but coriander ache swirling with coffee and citrus on the palate
Ska rhythms and glitch music
All made me feel strange.

The strange day had a date somewhere with small numbers and early spring,
Though springing later into the tackle with bigger numbers than I had grown up with
Carrying a heavier crisp crouton bitterness with it too.

On the strange day, I thought about the Sun a lot, as normal.
Hypochondria and television advertisements,
The ineffectiveness of the breath mint,
They all featured.


Maybe it was the lighting that made the strange day so photographically strange
Or the quiet poking out of every doorway
Flowing round the building like bad Karma

Perhaps it was the audacious and wrinkly and odd structure
An arty ziggurat building.
Or else the coffee, alcohol, sugar, weed, cough syrup, tobacco, milk.
Or else the violins in my headphones pulling tug o’war laser beams from my eyeballs
Writhing in the shadows with itchy beauty.

The strange day was a dark day.
Not in a metaphorical sense,
Not truly.
This day could have been a dream to wake up from or a film to exit from
The lights slowly coming on.
The light of the strange day would draw out into the sump of the Heavens before it returned refreshed.

Maybe tomorrow will be a strange day.
Sequels have reasons
Rooted in money usually
And thus I will work through
And my eyes shall drink in my lover’s form at the end of the daily swim
And xylophones will twinkle with the shadow writhing violin laser beams.
And the dust will settle tidy
And the paper will soak up the yellowing peach fruit light
Revealing glorious cracks!
And lips will crack!
And the third strange day shall be the day I die in a myriad-maze-mind of chap'stick happiness.
God bless Planet Earth.

Exoskeletons and Horticulture.

The fridge motor it hums
As I plod along
from Point 'A'.

I avoid Point 'B',
I avert my gaze
as though shielding my eyes from the visceral winter sun.

Indicators on.

Point 'B' is no eruption/A-1.
Point 'B' is a stumble, sometimes a trip or fall,
Sometimes a grazed knee
The knee is sometimes hairless and distorted.

I plod, I am aware Tortoise does not beat Hare.
Tortoise Point 'B' is still plosive, but when life is soft it is sibilant.
Slow and steady hissing life leak.
Nothing harshhhh.

Oh the glow of 'B' is without Hollywood finesse.
It sits and grows the other side of the refrigerator light, humming.
Food calls,
it echoes inside the cold dis-comfort in the hungry dead of
Night time.
The motor hums.
The indicators tick.
The clock ticks.
The joints click.

Air bubbles in the joints and in the brain.
Frozen comfort soothe our skins.
Let us giggle uncontrollably.
Swimming in nausea
and our temporary fridge-lit insanity.
Caress our evil trends.
Just supplant a smile, a
A warm fridge-lit smile
Minus phenylalanine,
And it's not perspex.
It's translucent like crepe paper or Quality Street wrappers and ever more so as time excels
Out of sight, out of space.
It defies either.

Now you cross fingers and crucify yourself.
You want desperately the point.
To get to the point.
Like so many times before.

The Point is Point 'B'.
Now go.

Energy Ends in Diagonal Dreams.

The dream killed itself
Hanging
In my living room.

The hope for the glory snapped in two
And youth vanished in escalating, exacerbating numbers
Crashing down the stairs.

The platform and the privilege
Snatched my prerogative
And slid into a fading oblivion.

The skyscraper dream killed itself
Tumbled
Into my living room.

The Weather Really Shouldn't Affect My Mood This Much/Merry Sweatstains.

Rot awake. A corpse and ripples. A smile grows. Organic.
Listen to music from 2008.
Colour returns and smiles grow in orchards, full bloom,
In the sheen of eighties cameras -
Matchstick simplicity,
Magnificent sunstroke,
Aligned eyes and natural light.


Memory factory, outdoor video, sun shone on a TV screen,
Sun shone on winter dust -
Vehicular romance, haircut towns, grasscut gardens -
Warming, browning, smiling,
Wash the car, throw the clothes, screw up receipts.


Those two hours didn’t mind – they disappeared anyway -
They always do, don’t they.
Now I don’t either, after nutrition and fallacy.
Guitar happiness and plastic trees.
I lie about the latter.
Car lifts and car life and trains back in fashion.
Bike rides, fields find meaning, paths find structure,
Breathing and walking and walking and breathing and closed eyes.
Find me in joy, splashing not swimming, no drowning allowed,
No pips, no squeaks, inflated walking – patchwork images.
