original poem included background image
one in two chance
yesterday before christ me
mao
in the year when life the turning
moon
and cramps became toxins creeping time’s colour
two girls stood at a bus stop
avatars of all who thought them there
one planned the scene of a crime the other its synecdoche
neat girls ready to bin havoc police
our minds
and deja
vu you
an Xtreme scene
government loose around
their shoulders, super hero capes
or mini skirts
barely covering
their brief schemes the bus
pulled in
out popped a couple
of seventies only they
would have known how old they were
girls stepped right past them into the bus
crazy nervous by now definitely the first step
into the day
they would never forget
watch this stop
this entangled
dour duo
will return
