the moon is a vegetable oxo cube
god could crumble her on his dinner
all is futile useless derelict
all is second-hand lifeless
nothing, decay
novel if you’re lucky
love is an onion wrapped in cling film
rotten on the inside
cold to the touch
death is a christmas bird in the oven
the stars all drown in a mustard hutch
blah blah woof those eyes are a twiglet
A second class guide is a third class girl
here come the japanese fish tank
mongers
they concrete the marshland for fascist spear chuckers
who jump in the puddle for a golden brick
so the olympian barrow-man men in wigs
earn a million pounds of useless fat from
making railway sidings from ploughshares
making a mint a killing a bomb
don’t convict them they don’t know the difference
between good and evil in this instance
turning ragwort into credit cards
looks like quite a guru’s trick
where have all those shining lights gone now
my mind is full of water
dull
the cacophony
penetrates like globs of tarmac
pouring through a hole in time weighing more than a doggy bag
under the sunken eye of summer
preying on my wurlitzer my crushed epiphany
my empty treasure chest
my corned beef heart pops drably through another day
why do you expose me to this quintessential misery
where nothing is spoken and nothing is heard
amongst the hail
of words words words
like a flock of wrens
like a dash of supermen
like an episode of recognition
what is the point of remembering that ring a ding ding
what is it that you couldn’t recall you’d already forgotten
down the mine shaft
water drips
pit props flush with the soul of a canary
creak beneath our ludicrous
crashing
what keeps it up this mad of cards
what keeps us in this dented mirror
“i wish i wish you'd come back
master
come crashing through the window in a slap of whispers
crumble stardust on my semi-unconsciousness
freeze it with a pall of winter never warm my dinner up
never let me think again
i wish i wish you'd drown me like a bridge-wreck train
under water screeching as befits the angry ektoskeletal monster”
renfield said
with the crush of an ant
when the walls unfurled
A second class guide is a third class girl
A second class guide is a third class girl.
no idea when i wrote this - got some mustard hutch references ab out 2003 maybe
