frog feet lean towards him
they bound
  and leap
     but
reptile
metaphors
hold
no
agency
when
frogs
are
   actually
amphibians.
gills or no gills,
the feet pendulum.
One reptile life is not enough.
lay
out
options
lie to me.
give me lungs AND gills.
The water murks and reflects a familiar hue,
the land beckons
i want to breathe

rude awakening

rude awakening

Mickey Mouse lies motionless
19/20 vision cost him it all
heres to you Lucas,
these things happen
with the right amount of
force

Rust and Mould

Marcellus Jones Jul 2015

Rust and Mould

Gunpowder kisses
induce clamor
and leave
the flesh
with
craters and tetanus.
patched NRA smiles swell,
"take me away"
...we squeal.
its never enough,
rust and mould both shine grey
against the heat

gold

gold

They were just accolades, stepping stones
Now all the trophies are leaking,
Colour was never meant to be static
Pony Boy is losing his stature

Guy

Guy

Guy Fawkes
is the symbol this
generation wants.
Not the symbol
it needs.
The mask bleeds blue-
but then just bleeds.
