Bone Idols
Long time - no sea
and feelings of the ocean-pull
have gained the upper hand,
There is nothing here
in writing,
just pigeon- breasted
righteousness,
increasing stipulations
All that meadowsweet
and moonshine ran,
to desert sand androgony
sank lower
than the daily dip
of fire's head in middle distance
Dizzy social densities
imported inner-city syndromes
proffer only impotence
of temporary reprieve
seems hard to bed
the disenchanted,
sickening for cigarettes
for solitary epithets
-ennui-
So, hide away
demands that breed
the need to know the answers
Been peeking
round the prism bars
empowered sense of self defeat
For sugared-melon hedonism
far too many lines have soured
Long,
Long time - no sea...
