the airconditioner blows
air in from outside
The sparse trees still wait
The sparse trees still wait
with branches guiding me home
in whispers I know
with branches guiding me home
in whispers I know
Something stirs the birds
Something stirs the birds
in the park near my house and
the birds then stir me
in the park near my house and
the birds then stir me
As the weeds take root
As the weeds take root
I despair at prickly pear
and box thorn crowned ground
I despair at prickly pear
and box thorn crowned ground
There once was a man
There once was a man
who stacked his bike so badly
his beard hairs straightened
who stacked his bike so badly
his beard hairs straightened
Twitter’s like a church
Twitter’s like a church
where robots dressed as humans
yell “Amen” from crowds
where robots dressed as humans
yell “Amen” from crowds
Swimming pool change rooms
Swimming pool change rooms
reverberate with wet yells
and smell of chlorine
reverberate with wet yells
and smell of chlorine
That point when a sound
That point when a sound
disappears from the foreground
and becomes background
disappears from the foreground
and becomes background
The squashed tortoise shell
The squashed tortoise shell
a bump under black rubber
is all that remains
a bump under black rubber
is all that remains
She will step outside
She will step outside
first thing in the morning to
squash snails and drink tea
first thing in the morning to
squash snails and drink tea
