mood

colonising arcady or something worse | or black
or endlessly mellifluous endymion | this edition of pleasures
morocco bound | well whadya expect between hard covers…

placebos in viaducts in the dawn | of engineering?
the reconfigurable submarine | of your hopes?
the tension in all but the most | is organic

a slave in a field | she’s corn silk
frayed by wind | jerk a curtain
spray sunlight on upturned faces | lead soldiers

you could scribble | photons in forests
blood stains | in chapels
authentic blood | authentic ukuleles

hmm…

if there’s a snake in the house | let it loose
better | than biting your heart
midnight is nothing | to stay up for

nothing | but a calm word
in a kingdom | of dunes
thank god | there is nothing to do
