Take Either + Distillation

It is then
Is it not
All the same

So
Given choice
Take either

For
At the end
As along the way

It is then
Is it not
All the same


Serially insidious
Walk on, fastidious
From individual

Through to indivisible
On into the hardly visual
Merely meander, in mystery

Now, quite inconspicuous
Yet eerily for books
A vortex spinnable

Totally so so visible
See for all
Hopelessly inadmissible

I Hear You Breed

Aloof from my own self

Erect in my mistaken identity

A panic attack of supremacy

More than merely alive


A catch for any maiden

A soldier to make you cry

A latch to open for the laden

Boulders that stall to stratify


Proof if it was ever proven

Detect; I hear you breed

A panic attack of supremacy

More thoroughbred than steed


A match for any haven

A shoulder there to amplify

A patch to blind the cursed raven

Rocks that crave, with needs to pacify

Fuchsias or Freesias (Scream Not Heard)

Now can I get you to smell this stuff
And if so how

Burnt Skin
Roast on human spits
Smoked over oil flamed leaves

Diesel or Gas
Exhausted 
Float off before the fall

Thin return
In early winter
Eerie atmosphere

How can I get you to smell this stuff
Would it be easier if it were your mother

Kick, crunch underfoot 
Stand erect, breathe slow 
Remember 

No more white berries
My Edwardian friend
Down Broadway’s broad walks

Each different house
Today expect the bay
A front room for the dead to lay

How can I get you to smell this stuff
Would it be easier if it were your failure

Missed it
Must not able to afford
Explain to them

The aroma

Corporate Clothes

Heartbeat in your cosmos lee
Take me
To your meditation retreat
Take me in all innocence

Heartbeat across the sea
If you have cared
To read along, join together
Sing a simple sensitive song

Heartbeat across the oceans
Take me
To your ceremony's defeat
Let your silk swathes set me free

Heartbeat in the stars and streams
If you have cared
To read along join together
Sing our simple sensitive song

Heartbeat across the oceans
Heartbeat across the sea
Take me
In all innocence

Let your silk swathes
Set me free
In your ceremonial retreat
Let your silk swathes set me free

No Defence

Sunlight, stained glass
Interned upstairs
Shadow, artificial light
Infirm are down below

Country lanes
And thistle fences
No defence
For crept in thoughts

Trees out of leaf
Clung with ivy
No rungs for jackboots
That daddy brought

Children or spiders
Snug inside
No bug for those elementary
Liquorice-all-sorts

Parcels, presents
Delivered on time, by then
To open, to close
To return, to intend her

Impending desolation
Only hesitation cares
And words, to open
To close, interns beware
