Autumn leaves trickle down like bile Bloody bandages on trees Yellow pavers line the pathways Where we learnt to practise our disease As we are tearing through the rubble Wiping off the dust of shame The mob has found a perpetrator But only dead are here to blame Potholes fill the barren roads Where toy […]
I dashed quickly out of her greasy hands, past the bodyguard onto the street, zipping my jeans back up under the floodlamp behind my head, unsatisfied. The rain, backlit begun vacuuming back its own tears in reverse as underneath my feet, the water was gluttonously purged out by the storm drain. Innocence was gained. Time […]
Of the Eros and Ego, an urge for construction The defective goes by his own hands The superior prototype fears death As weak of strong will, plead for destruction Short tooth cuts itself on long days His darkened skin’s been burning for years Illusory desire flickers fluorescent He sits on the corner of bed, undressed […]
In slow motion Two eyes widen A glass of water hits the floor And we’re moving with slow notions In a wait for something more
“The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed.” – C.G. Jung When somebody fantasizes about an illegal action, are they a criminal? When an undesired individual features you their sexual daydream, outside of your own control, with no authorization, is it a […]
One connectome, one mind. We are the future joined by experience. We walk around, and talk and see as future predictions derived from similar neural maps, guiding us in a semi organized crowd to the factory where we tie shoes.

I was Ganymede of Galileo, not of Zeus, protected by a battered skin in pits from disease of the body and glacier scars dragging across the skin from disease of the mind. Scratch the insect bite until you break skin; the itch has now gone. The insect has not. You will wake up again, unremarkable […]
Touch your skin to cold my child Point your eyes toward the sun And keep your finger in the blue flame As did Ual and Ory, twins named Perception Remembered as loss and victory In a game where hierarchy has no place Forget discomfort, take on one real sensation Rearranging merely flour of the bread […]
This gentle friction can strip off thin skin clean Like a medicine bottle’s label soaking in warm water Once he touched down, my chest started to burn Fear of that too small to see, every man is flawed An apple a day is a drip of poison as another face gets pale Pavlovian fear of […]
For beauty’s found inside abandoned sheds Filled by strange tools for romantic future use We are sitting on the silent ledge, no winds The past is partial, fragmented Tainted by the moment’s colour For nostalgia is wonder Stripped down, purified and unattainable Instinctive learning, sending searchlights for signs Excited by the unknown, that’s still familiar […]
