shame is UP your highness under garments showing draping ºheld beholden
TOP above time • OVER same last century
under ground god golden idols ºburning up in effigy • surrendertRUth by rendering
sun2 shine on sunny DAZE
the Hipocracy of ignorance is growing vines around your fence ºing U in2 A corner
closing in on U again
strangling U by coroner ºquincy A dams apple (A)day • gulping in the guilt
double cruci -fixed christ sympathy
flying over fields of fortune dropping bombs ON children reading ºbOOks on
safe removal oF live mines ºin jungle sanctuaries
believing ghostS of gallantry • citing quotes on chivalry • gaping eyes young mouths
2feed • gauntlet lancing WARt worries
bureaucracy leviathan’s clammy hands clamp round your ring • fingering
distracting U • soothing what YER SOOth seeing
creature comforts creep A way • themeek inherit last class seats • leaving earth
2burn behind • A monu mental man made feat
sad seeing things through eyes strain hardening 2 comprehend • living in among mere
GIANts • immoral mortal hope less MEN
sins accusing god excuses lacking IN self lESS restraint • behaviour gone
unpunished • due 2 kamicosmic skeptic debt
the democracy of cretins ºis dreaming in what’s seem ing ly • impossible 2 C thin air
seeping bREAth • 2 black 2 breathe
changing blind direction • waiting on A new BORN dream • prying out enamellED
nails • scratching right back at U babe

evening in the sand paper re fining fables glory
phoney ball be lonely for lorn • eich man searching h’ordeurves
taste testing his tory dress sing up in arms crossed for war
sa luting tears salt watering • gas wide eyed re volving
carousel piggy backing bacon wrapped warm hiding

squirming with the worms the early birds absurdly worry
arg u ing down town preaching • blaming HIGH attendance
on the dancers folding flaps up on the pants hot trotting

lean-to willows fill with sparrows
begging god’s protection under bleeding suns
black clouds gather - the locusts scatter
a wet road grieves and turns to winds away
a dog out on the road tail between its legs
hobo ghosts, their box-carred souls
riding for their lives along a cargo line
we tap in time to fading rhymes
rehearsal to a show that was on last night
our fingers now fiddling frantically to keep the time
the air breathes thick, the crickets pace
grass freshly cut gives the air its taste
stinging streams of gasoline
running through a blood red handed race between
man and what he plants and what he reaps
the jig is up, the water’s rising
heroes baling out a boat that’s burning
our promised land - slip sharp in god’s great hands
feel his tense steel wire gripping round your neck
all helping hands below this shipwrecked deck
no one cares what you wear
you’re wearing nothing, you’re naked now
dance my child, wild round the fire
mother nature burning, deepens her desire
her back up for attack for years of rape
echoed words(echoed words), cawing birds
flying in and out an old man’s eye
a bloody river reflects a manmade mirror
the devil’s given in to all of our demands
this tangled web we weave with idle hands

we’ve been playing in the sellar tired of printing money

the tortoise and my hair Guelph, Ontario
diary of a decomposing dog
this diary on this scary day is one of warmth again and
play i am not going to say what my feeling really is in fact it’s just a lark that i have any at all no one’s left to listen, no one ever has, my bed’s been made un-wizened so been judged to be the best, but somehow just one wrinkle in my head is always left.
