in this world
we see disease
we see hurricanes
we see famine
we see wars

in this world
we paint the sistine chapel
we split the atom
we go to the moon
we decode the dna

in this world
we face threats
we are resilient
we look at the stars
we search

then in this world
there are others
who write about their dates

The dream
Of infinite thoughts
From finite hardware
In the skull box.

The reality
Of nothing more
Than enhanced eelgrass
With mighty finite
Algorithms alas.

Which one
Makes this plant dream
Not to be
Machine steam?

I found myself upon a hill,
Breathing dust of stars.

I called your name.
I savoured the echo.
I embraced the ache.

We are quarry.
Looked after by the sickest gamekeeper.

The old lady queueing at the store. Do you see.
What's on TV tonight.
I remember the faces of the all the people I've met.
An orange may cost twenty-five pence.
The waiter cleaning the table looks tired. Do you see.
The dreary underground of this city.
My life's a leaf in a foliage.
Stay tall like a man. Give a hand. Smile.
Where's the ashtray.
