Lime Chicken Kiev
Lime Chicken Kiev

I looked outside to see The lawns were covered in broken baubles Took a walk towards the bees For the honey, not because it’s noble The stench of rain was in the air I ran amuck to see myself In the reflection of a skip’s lid A nihilistic head under unruly hair Street dogs were […]

Smoke and Mirrors
Smoke and Mirrors

If our minds are comfortable and uninspired we will remain unevolved, like Southern marsupials, free of competition, inside a vacuum, too stagnant and stale to encourage change. For change is a forceful, effort-requiring utilitarian behaviour. For change is the reaction to discomfort. Few have enough intellectual discomfort to experience willpower. We will continue to look […]

Tar and feathers
Tar and feathers

I stank of oil, greasy black Shook my legs out for a spin Coughing through some dampened lungs Cloudy like the room we’re in Wall to wall of pornstars that we’ve never been Like headless flies, hung up on same old memes Faces on posters with no name, in a Boson’s lifetime Same repertoire, same […]

On the explainable
On the explainable

An irrational, unbearable fascination. The compulsion to look into somebody’s eyes, the screen through which our perception of somebody is distorted whilst we experience the paradoxically intense desire to know them, to analyse the structure of their persona, every grain composing their skin, slopes at the peak of an ear, every web of their iris […]

Postman’s Wife
Postman's Wife

She’s hysterical, his biblical perfection Can work the locks to her own hands And when he’s gone, she’ll scream outside A burning space oddity, just like other girls Perfect maids, marching in the street It takes cruelty to seem so kind To one’s neighbour, to oneself Words become corrupt When parity is missing in their […]
