I can’t imagine how they felt all those little men mining away in Yokos mouths tiny splinters of fillings cut with diamond drills 7% solution distilled tucked into sleep with glue and nails gills opening and closing everybody we appropariate your money in the breadline we speak in nods the secret handshakes to complicated to remember more names than God stand between skyscraper tall and late 1990’s dietary fads

mining Yoko Onos mouth
chicken soup pickles bread tea bags the list could go on confronted by 1000 varieties of mayonnaise my head began to throb my nose bled the prison of freedom the cul-de-sac of choice do red cars really go faster and how do I stop this twitch? through this specific lense of prisms and pyramids he always checked his watch constantly like he could change time make it stop or make it loop back on itself so he could guage the day all over again he looks like royalty and by that I mean his face was flat like he was squashed on a coin 
one eye cyclops a telescope

in a dream I robbed a bank and one of the cashier fell in love with me I wore a mask and when asked to describe me the cashier said I resembled a matinee film star all chiselled cheek bones I sent her a £1,000 and a note saying thanks she thinks about me daily

bank robber
I saw a woman take a picture of a picture at 8:33am next to a bus stop who’s shadow was all broken glass and burger wrappers my aftershave is making me feel sick today’s soundtrack is The Ballad of Reverend War Character. online people in a group all talking about what they’ve seen on the internet - •kid falling over •the worlds largest elastic band ball •cats that look like ****** •beef-burger garnishes and that scene in Papillon when the screen turns upside down and he says YOU HAVE BEEN ACCUSED OF A WASTED LIFE scared the out of me head like a planet *** marked like a meteor impact a mug shot on a 1,000 police walls fingerprints like the map contours of mountains the peaks the peaks he ****** in the wound and it smelt like burning hair incoming message incoming missile the earth shrieks the damaged people inflict damage on others OUT OF SYNCH LIKE WALKING WITH A LIMP LIKE THE SOUNDTRACK SLIPPED numbers formulated on spreadsheets cause waves crashing on the opposite side of the word the flap of butterfly wing that scratches the surface of stretched skin

Four stages of going to the plug-hole
the dead man died today he'd been dying for a while now the rain washed away the chalk children before they could run into the horizon and appear like scratches on your lense "Don't worry about the government" was the title of the last song I heard impeach the leader eat the rich the sign language man in the bottom of the TV screen got cramp and confused the viewers with his dyslexic fingers I can be found on google maps

automatic writings: separate things
the modern miracles of the modern messiah - feeding the destitute  with one chicken - quenching their first with a litre  of Coke - modern mercies at the homeless shelter - the young kids with gout and nosebleeds all the odd numbers at the bingo hall solar power fuelled anger buy one get two free as the flies buzz around the discarded fruit out back of the supermarket angels with ***** faces angels in Nikes

messiah with chicken
Yesterday the weather changed and what it changed into, I can not say. It was something words can not describe. We will need a new alphabet. There will be a public debate held around bandstands, or in libraries after hours, when the school kids and the homeless have vacated. Professors and purveyors of taste and trends will argue their views on live TV. The polemicists will debate, until definitions are forged, and when new words are created, old meanings will be cast asunder and forgotten. A phone poll, followed by a referendum will give the public a voice but once there is a consensus private investors will be invited to table bids to sponsor the new vowels.
