The Landing
The Landing

The aliens arrived and they read our DNA just like a book. They had no interest in our words. They sampled the oceans and its diseases, a pathology specimen from the self-destructive damsel of this solar system, an off-smelling primordial soup that has sat on the counter for too long, infested with small creatures who […]

Radium Girl
Radium Girl

She thinks she knows what’s good for her A glow she can’t deny And as she paints the time Her youth runs dry She’s a radium girl White teeth, bright smile Not one for wisdom’s pearls All the while she lies But this girl’s on time Lead coffin fused Jaw clenched, skin brined For sale: […]

The waves
The waves

Hide your face in the dark Here nobody has a mouth Streets are echoes Of the past We play our part We are still making our way Through the months Through the days Through the myths and Through discovery Burning through the Greek alphabet Dethrone the self-crowned Proud idiot kings and queens Off with their […]

Spills
Spills

I am an ossuary For the skulls and bones Who’ve seen my insides raw I can envelop and expand To hold imprints of loved ones past For unloved familiar faces For warm strangers It is now baggage of my own Imprints of film and life That I feel I’ve lived But now these imprints cause […]

Madeleine
Madeleine

They burst apart when we’re asleep These unexamined inconsistencies Memories, a fibrous mass Weigh something on a pair of scales Energy When you ask, you change The order of things and The things in the order Elegy Write it down and spurn Contrarian words I would have said On the street two ships of Thesius […]

Oberon
Oberon

You are holly topiary A king of the fairies A singing canary This weird castle suits you You ain’t a crown like that But those stairs leading up Surely do suit your cats Rapunzel stuck in the fire escape Goldilocks without a fussy taste I wish I knew time, Alas I only have haste He’s […]

Neuron Star
Neuron Star

Now here’s an eclipse As the blood slowly drains Away from my eyes and down from my heart A neuron breached its way too far With gravity of magnetars It is not a lapse of time. It is not a prayer for the sun. Fuck St Valentine and everything he’s never done.

White elephant
White elephant

I took a taste of honey I took a taste of clover Soon as I knew taste of sin In the light it was all over The tape played halfway through Then it snagged some more Ceremony’s been rescheduled Of birth, of death Starting life in hanging And ends within unknown lore White elephant dreams […]

Got a friend
Got a friend

There is a spider in my bathroom She sheds her skin to keep herself company

Indifferent
Indifferent

You started out, looking just like me And when we split off at the fork in that other mother It had somehow turned into another world Just another path, a routine substitution Let me prove to you, that you too, are gray inside Extrusion is a superficial game Bone, bile, skin and muscle And nothing […]

Traces
Traces

I live with my past on the surface We turn inside out and outside in again It’s not a thing I haven’t seen before I came, I heard and saw you More bare than this old scratching pole Sitting in the corner silent With that blue glow to your face I still don’t know If […]

Future Diaries: She, Robot
Future Diaries: She, Robot

I used to be creative. I used to make music, construct images, to write, to draw. I used to have a thirst to learn. Now I am petty and self absorbed, I have turned out just like my father. I am a one dimensional character paralyzed by self awareness, full of self loathing. But I […]
