recipe
a mass of people in a midan midan of snowflakes no not snowflakes of flags of stone almonds and rice with milk with powdered white steam making tea come out of choo choo trolleys and more milk for the barley of pale male robes hanging down on cotton candy by the shiny lady who is wearing metalic pants ultra light of the semiramis intercontinental shining through dusk smoke bomb painted silver of crowds and crowds and crowds and crowds with tin bowls and itchy town faces who are neither winning nor loosing from the crying gas
You face me like an Atlas, broad and far in scope, distance, I can
surely travel there. Sometime. Sometime soon? I'm seeing Hungary in
your eyes now. And the baths of Budapest. Water baby, come with me.
Lets go to one of the Poles. Or Poland? We can live an underground
life in the kracks of... Moldova, up the river, down the path, of
your nose. I know we will eventually. See eachother there. at the mouth.

Spare
he drowns inside his own eyes. steep the water goes. flowing out out and into thin air. he doesn't know. he doesn't care. he thinks this is the way it is. the world and the air. this thick smoggy headache city. his babies swim away from her there. without a care.
Nothing more. No. naked eyes love her for its as if she has always been there.
The smell is stale. It can't wake up. It can't open its eyes to breath fresh air. The air is not fresh anymore. If it ever was. his eyes are deafened by their depth, damp trodden brown, he stares alot now.
Its damp down there.

The Earing makers + Like bears
The Earring Makers
Two earring makers
revealed themselves to her
as earring makers.
The first a long time ago.
The second just recently.
But she doesn't wear earrings.
Among other things.

babe
Meet me, greet me, eease me into your world
Give me reasons to do things,
build me with your tools
but don't tell me what not to do
and don't you take my tools away

Tuesday
PDF forever, Rough Guide unfinished
Locked in the contours of a face, wide
eye and cheeks abroad
A paradise, but only in a layer
I stay there, for a long time, too long
I am captive, but I don't dig -
I have the tools I think, but I am
afraid they won't work
For this is not a real place, not one
that can really be attacked or altered
It choses itself and our experiences
in it, as if we don't have a will
but we do.
Annihilation
Theres something so tantilising about a
surface
Unbroken and untainted
Holding us there, in smooth valleys
between the features and down in large
ponds
but there is limited wildlife here
and the bays they are stark and the
waters see-through
A quiet place, for birdseye babes
Flat chested seagulls
who coo at the sight of a one sided
world
we weep at the surface, we dine there
again and again and again and again
but the food, it is tasteless
as it always was.
green
Interlocked, on the Tahrir junction,
now, garden , the smell of linen, detergent, and behind the ears
of what anyone might call love; is not
enough to take me, this time, through the sleepless city, back to
your ship of giant ants, and warmth, and comfort, a three storey
desert house, of faded fabric, junk yard, balconies galore, and
rooftop watching.
shabby matresses, and that turkish
coffee morning; spilling over into the dawn of a new day slept
through, a big sleep and never let go - of two docile bodies,
clinging on like broken babies, in a city of bodies everywhere.
Revolution? I don't want to leave - from this patch of grass, on the
Tahrir junction garden; dressed and unable to touch properly, in
safety, we are being watched.
paralized on a patch of grass, grown on
top of old terror, new seeds planted - not another land, just another
layer, I don't want to go.
Hijabis night bathing in blood, on this
green spot of evolution.
Have a cup of tea koshari, the roots
are a pain in my side, but, I just don't want to move
hale a taxi
but don't you go.
For here, in this shakey place
storeys high city,
you were my only home
hale a taxi
but don't you go.
For here, in this shakey place
storeys high city,
you were my only home
Thursday
box for the pathetic
I think you got it, good and clean, I think you got it, without a contest, dogs mess
you were just playing, cleanliness, you were just fooling, politeness, you were just cooing, floozying, it down, to the bottom, of your loneliness, more or less, I must confess, I think i got it, I'm, humouring it down, into a box, for the pathetic...

O – Us
We are not knowledge centres
you and I
we do not archive
information
figures
facts and futures
we have no interests
no hobbies
but we have favourites
we have fortunes
and our eyes are full.
Poison from the borderless
If I'll go to a place which is quiet
am I looking for peace -
where the mountains don't even whisper
but I can feel their heat
waking up on sea, matressed out with a
door wide open to greet me
you retrieve me
theres a slug in my room and I can't go
to sleep
theres an ache in my head and it won't
let me be
thinking, slowly.
Sit around scarved
wanting to sing, to be heard
but not on this night
off to bed sleepy head
and then hear the ring
some-body is playing
wherever he is sitting
'are you shy or can I …'
'we can play louder on the mountain...'
no treking shoe, just walk it through
a canapy, a blanket, a sweet little
bedlet
and play and sing
voices' sweet and sharp and high
and so is his sugar cane
from matted locked,
and sunbaked ly
open up wide
and listen to the tide
and listen to the tide
and listen to the tide
and listen to the tide
and listen to the tide
and listen to the tide
and listen to the tide
he hes dogheat
and I I am dry sheet
in the meat
without a thought
wipe up with a jeep
little feet pattering
need to go to sleep
and thumble down the hill
stones fly
maybe I'll die
and hes ahead
and I am unstead-y
a bedoin had had,
before the light came back to care for
me
to make him retreat
into hut, palace for a mutt
a white horse must cover him
over limbs of asalaya
shield him to dark time
to have his stinging again and again
later.
Thursday
appointment
I didn't realise it would be too bright
for you my dear,
I had suspected, that I was
addicted to the light
To the wide white window frames
and the tall white walls
but the ultra white light bothered you
and made you feel quite sick.
Letting you in for the first time
soon turned ill -
there in my bright white surgery lab
was a clinical spirit not ready to be
murky
well not here, not in these clean
waters
and yet
the ambiguity of our tidy white faces
led somewhere, somehow
a weed to grow
or to sprout out immediately,
but die ever so instantly afterwards
and then there were the white beans
boiling
and you said you wouldn't eat my shit
and then there were your other appointments
pending
and you said, you wouldn't step outside
with me
until I washed my face
and so, up in my house clothes
and made myself up
to leave by your side...
...............................................................................................................
you come in this way? (do you, do you
dear?)
But isn't this an entrance for the
servants?
