meine umwelt
avec moi, sans moi,
par moi
Ahh… and the tales I shall unfold
May blast comprehension if the truth be told
An ode to the masters, martyrs and whims
A satyr on life and sullied daydreams
(1996)
Chicken wire fence
Cut in the wrapping
We didn’t see you
They cried
Chicken wire fence
Imprint egg sliced
Hung from the bow
Didn’t see you!
Chicken wire fence
Barbed above barbed below
Severed head, severed heart
Limbs bent behind
Chicken wire fence
Classes started
Corporeal punishment
Existence repent
Chicken wire fence
Barbed above barbed below
State stamp state seal
Severed diced dumped
Chicken wire fence
Paste on a smile
Paste on a service
Severed diced dumped
Chicken wire fence
States’ cats’ cradle
Severed diced dumped
Where’s your smile?
(16th July ‘15)
Tap, tap, tap my dancer
In the autumn leaves
Tap, tap, tap my dancer
Till your dance is over
In the autumn breeze
Tap, tap, tap my dancer
Tap through the autumn streams
Tap, tap, ‘till you’re home again
(Feb ‘85)
aut viam inveniam aut faciam
I'll either find a way or make one
Constant rock shifting metaphor lenses
Straight talking exacts
Crashes across the shore
Agencies' shame dark shadows of
Pan optic internal spasms
non omnis moriar (Horace, Odes)
not all of me shall die
