blue.

Through you
I see no edges;
A gentle
Fade
From thing to thing.
Stars fell into reflections and now the sky is empty and the sea is full.
Temptation to
Dip toes into ink
And walk
To bed
With nibs for feet,
Writing 'blue' upon these streets.
Tonight the gulls
Cry
'Blue'.
The sea is full.
The edges are gone.
And so I:
As much bench as I am floor,
As much sky as I am pen.
The pier now
Appears now
-Through you as I see-
To be as much blue as the
Spilled Ink.
The carnival has come.
Each corner lit
By the yellow shade of blue.
Fades to middle
Into shades,
More shapes,
Cause the stars fell and hit the ships.
Did the stars hit me,
Or am I blue too?
Edgeless through your eyes.
Damp breath.
Overhead fly the gulls;
BLUE BLUE
Cry the gulls.
The carnival has come
To paint the town.
On this night we painted blue.

There Are Only Some Things Onto Which You Can Shovel Dirt.

Here is my body.
My faulty faculties and my frail frame.
Here is the box you will place me in.
Will it hurt?
Could I test the weight the of the earth
Before I'm under it?
Ground
Path
Earth
Dirt
Upon you I have trod
Since I learnt to walk.
So tell me now,
Did I hurt you?
You beneath me.
Did it hurt
Having the human race shovelled upon you?
An earth buried beneath the people who,
When they can walk no more,
Bury themselves beneath the earth.
So tell me, did it hurt?
Here is my body.
My faculties at their faultiest and my frame at its most frail.
So tell me why,
When we die,
Do we place upon us the weight of the world?

Sorry.

When I moved away
I moved you
With me.
I took your order each day and your routine.
I moved and - it's not like I made sure - but I assumed you
that you
I assumed that you moved with me.
I assumed when I moved you changed;
Let my life alter yours.
I was sure I was
The cog that kept this part of town going.
The man with Tourettes still comes to read the papers. She still wants buttered baked potatoes significantly earlier than everyone else.
Moving away will not stop
All the lonely people coming to the library.

My Dentist Is Called Dr Luck.

i like the way my name sounds on your teeth
when you sleep
it slips
from the corner of your mouth
collects in a puddle on your pillow
stains
your
lips.
crusty on them in the morning
rinsed away to give you
morning dew skin
fresh nameless breath
full moistened lips
when back to sleep you slip
from the corner of your mind
sleep brings my name back to dry out your tongue
stale christened breath
breathe.
i like the way my name sounds on your teeth.

Tremble.

I can make you tremble
Body below body I can
I can make you tremble I can make you shudder
Lover empty over empty I can
Make you shudder.
Lay still and silent and realm between boundaries only these,
I will reach below your knees
Roam in breathlessness and gasping grasping out between
I made myself know
And you known so
New are we.
I can make you tremble body
Below body I can.
A cascade of foaming silence washes over you in waves
And leaves marks about your hips as the tide it breaks I can make
I can
I can make
I can make you shudder lover
Empty over empty
Deep over deep
Until silence meets and lies
Again with us between.
Someone has taken thread to sew down your silk spine.
From the base of your neck
In a line to a hand who holds
The needle still and breaking stillness
Shapes an arch in your back and grinds your shoulders in the silence.
Realm between the boundaries
Between boundaries only these
I can make you tremble and shudder body below body lover I can
Can I make I can make I can make you can I make you I can
Make
I can
Make make you I can
I can make you tremble.

CANIBALCENTRIC; If A Tree Falls In A Forest...

is it lust or lost?
a kiss on the spaces where skin is softer where viens pump faster
where falling
down
upon
my
knees
i call out to God and grab my gun and run to shoot my pastor MASTER
MASTER MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE CREATOR OF SUCH A
shabby globe
these are the promises you did not uphold
this is the doubt you placed in me
hypocrisy heresy he said synergy and i agree softer
softer is the way of the woman than the man the socially
constructed human can
the time has come to construct our bunkers and
eat tinned food
and hold our loved ones
human tin openers opening human tin
to eat the salty preserves of skin and is it lust
or is it lost
oh lost lust is leaving slowly for the door
no one saw or
heard the creak in the floor
alone the footsteps make a sound no one hears and so
everyone says there was never sound here is
nobody listening and world falling silent
but everyone's talking just the same
it was us the fuel of sinners and thieves
and if our lord in heaven is holding the reigns
well let it rain let it rain let it rain let it rain let it drain
out of me
for fathers our poor father our fore father and four fathers
left childless we are the mindless
and we are the strong
brute strength
no morals
we destroy all we touch
just to feel
the adrenaline pump
feel it rush and it gushes like the waves He threw
down and he hoped and prayed and wished we'd all drown
what have i created
what have you become
i had
lust for a world that is lost
that is
gone.

Lie Berry.

I assumed a sort of new
Assumption.
I kept my eyes
Fixed and pluck up the gumption.
Something else was starting to function,
A sort of new
Found to be true
Assumption.
I felt fine for a while prior and post then,
Post-it notes around my throat with all the thoughts I thought before when;
Spilling out my jingle jangle junk box
Head onto your bed,
Might have made it seem
That particles had collided to make us think the same.
And it's sweet that you refuse
To believe it's more than watching,
Possible touching,
More than,
More like
Twitching.
And it's sugary that you need your pillow to be
Clean and warm and empty,
Before you pretend to listen when you crawl in bed
Beside me.
Not a noise in the night more mumbled and crackling;
The salty skin of the memories of the men we bought back when
Fingers need bending and minds need a rest.
Stop and wait and go again. Best.
Lazy memory mornings,
Yawning.
My mind has been up all night pacing,
Watching me sleep next to the company I'm facing.
It tells me my acting skills of
CoolCalm
AndCollected
Are coming off dull if not slightly affected.
So it is not hard to sleep
Alone.
It is however most uninteresting.
BloodBlister.
TypeRighter.
LittleSister. Biggger. Brighter.
Loster.
Found her
Cowering over books, giving wobbly glances and shaken up looks.
There is an eye I would try to hold steady.
Ready?
A medley of memories;
Short term and long
Lingers.
Wiping it all off my fingers.
Middle digit rigid.
And I wonder
If you realise:
I'm offering you a new form of cigarette for you to stylize.
This is not anger this is unbent proclamation.
Candy cigarette fingers for a cancerless nation.

foryourbite.

There's a sound now;
Muffled and stunted and filtered through ear after ear after ear and after all
You can hear
Is this sound now.
Eyes are closed.
Bottom lip curls to be bitten and reassured it is still part of your mouth,
But your jaw it is listening and lolling as it does
And it loses grip on your lip as the sound rolls past.
Also your neck listens with tilt and with sway,
Leaning close to your shoulders which lock your arms in place.
At the end of your arms past the bone and the bend you are
Spelling out words in your palm.
Your fingers are tickling the sentences,
And you're sensitive
Skin clams up and you know:
When I finish writing,
When my body can't hear,
They'll be no more words left to recite.
Muffled and stunted and filtered through ears,
Bottom lip
Crying out
For your bite.

Eyjafjallajokull

It said on the news today that nobody died.
That there's a big black cloud hanging over us
that will never rain, but someday clear.
That it will provide us with beautiful sunsets and settle softly on our noses.
It said on the news today that blacks the new white and
the dictionary has placed
FIRESNOW
between
FIREBRAND
and
FIREWORKS.
In other news television has taken control of the NHS and will hand out glasses for free,
with a tagline written upon each pair; 'Its the best way to BBC'.
To collect your complimentary pair of anti-Israel specs
shout answers to this equasion at your television set.
If you do not receive your glasses:
you are not shouting loud enough.
A survey
showed an increase in preference towards the sea over the sky.
A ten year old said that the sea was a more aspirational symbol than the stars
and that the more time her father spent at home the more he smelt like
white spirit.
In other news, ferry prices have rocketed and jumbo jet parts are being sold off.
There was a loud bang heard today
and the roads are clear
and the only pollution presently is the tar stuffed down in God's lungs.
It said on the news today that the Lord has cancer
and that cigarettes are free.
That there was world wide looting of fag factories resulting in
escalated
tension and riots followed by a relaxed
exhalation
and a new feeling of global affinity with Hashem,
Well, that's what it said.
And the weather man explained
that there's a big black cloud hanging over us that will someday clear,
but never rain.

A TABLE UNLAID

I will not try animate you
as you need
no boots, coat or hat.
There'll be no limbs attached,
no blood
to drain
or air to catch.
Sitting as you are;
no rim around your Fedora or
carnation in your shirt,
no proud straight back against
an empty arm chair,
with no fingers to crack and
no rings to place there.
No strong jaw or romantic
temperament.
No reputation for being a
gentleman.
No easy way to settle
when
you've no legs to rest or
knees to bend.
And with no soft lip with split not on,
and no warm eyes unbruised,
there's no blood that clots to heal for them
and no need to stitch or sooth.
With no shoulders broad to hang
no suit.
No buttons to buttons
and no laces to boot,
and between these two
no cloth there to cover,
neither your right leg left
just as un as the other.
And so
sits empty
your invisible
chair,
inside your invisible
walls, by your fire of air.
Upon your transparent rug,
in a house no one made;
there you sit
with no body
at a table unlaid.

Love ran down my back made me a fillet of fish
And it took out all my bones and it placed me on my dish
And it said: thou shall have thy lover
Underneath the covers,
Thou shall have thy lover
When the train rolls in.
I was a thousand fishes a shoal beneath the sea
When love it went a fishin' and it made a meal a' me
Turned to only flesh and warmed 'till I was done
I was placed upon my plate and then love made me a song
And it said: thou shall have thy lover
You shall be with one another
Thou shall have thy lover
When the train rolls in.

We Are Walking Nowhere

 I walked barefoot from my home to your home and measured the distance in toes.
 I thought; If your digits are twice the size of mine then I'm twice as far and you're twice as close
 and whilst
 Walking I counted the number of breaths and divided the whole by the number of steps.
 If your lungs can take say one lungful more
 Then you'd be able to hold your breath at the door;
 When you stood on my step and left their a tap,
 Then as the door opens lips part, lungs relax.
 And so breathing calmly you've finally arrived,
 With double the toes and lungs twice the size.
 We leave a clunk on the door and a creak on the stairs.
 No shoes no socks.
 We are walking nowhere.
