Careering (draft/unfinished)

 


Claridges House Red

hyacinth someone else's City

face raining across the border

fantasies of power chthonic

most things are naked 

& afraid crawling inside 

a seller’s hand everything passes

before us as beautiful then tragic 

then X commodity A = Y commodity B

or anti-light hors d'oeuvre this living 

The Love of Art, even people

will not come to be counted

in the sinks of Tall White Houses 

in the who fucks who & who does worse

small bronze venus flytrap

gently ironising out someone's mouth

singled down as a property 

part of the infinity of the poet

6.15.26 (draft)

 


Groyper flowers Schmittian 

club-goods the corvids

hollowed  on the tree stump

in Mar-a-Lago oases 

no dirges just colourless just

written poems afraid of 

flag wending askant

to Realpolitik under striped cabanas

the freeform pool a memetic molecule

of my heart its world history

gold leafing the perfection of disease 

will be in secret hegemon

bearing the costs for collective welfare 

or as ethnobotanists claim 

the age of shamanism 

is rapidly coming to an end


Witenestaple (For Catriona) (Draft/unfinished)

 


Kidston Blitz'd & spirited down

AQA papers fold

as my groins paperweight 

snap braid-pins consenting

naive tongue bentdumb

home or shelter

between Beech & Red Oak

forgotten in the forest of Blean

where the flags gone morbid

what hard choices fondled to 

fetal pulse bedspreads

holes to Provence Rose

Pink tines shame touch

the smell of Ilford multigrade developer 

makes latent image visible under the chin

of Headmaster Rare Peppermint Green

Metallic Jaguar my life hangs sucking

from bonnets twisted searches

its Pale Dark Stone interior

your house swooning lips to toes, 

past-loves blot out to suck & sole

whelks what else chokes

cairns of white posts, pederasty 

& English Sans serif smug

on mugs & tea towels 

you accumulate Polka-Dot tins 

wear your hair in a victory roll

Heath Fritillaries on Thanet Way Shingle

6.15.26 (draft)

 


Through which nothing passes

wind blackcoded minutes  

sleepless in the Interbau

love drifts to tariff graphic file

remains of tomorrow's twilight  

buildings sibilant cyanide 

through us in Tiergarten 

toward the other side 

of songs neglect

Petra performing salto del enamorado (the lovers leap), 2026
