twilight and the night animals spit raw
it's their time

timid by day   held under spell
now their time   to hold a great red court

the sun sets loud
blood soaks into dark places
       below the horizon

abraded sky  scabbed
      by winter fluctuation
much uncertainty

abrupt and business
              this winters day
perhaps it's apt
              that i keep   what i have to say
cold and short ?

sirens bawl
clear skies mean no school
(prospect of drone-strike)

.

mostly  i've lead a harmless life                            
(as harmless as a human passively could)
  watered down       at most drowning
     at most passionate   ( but for a while only)
decent imitation of life
safe... but none of this is safe is it ?                    
i am part of the expanded programme    
and it's operating at fault (as intended ?)
and the damage is massive

well aren't you the gallowgas ?                                  
           you cram the funeral into fun
hiding in a private room    suckling at your sad self
whilst secretly hoping  to be found lonely
depressions' muppet
                            *****  like confession
and hungry like the wound
