"glomming" poems
basemented this liminal vivarium of cool moulded plastic
with mirrors standing in for windows
and a ring of branded restaurants taking refuge at the edges
all familiar no surprises
the staff set up
for the consumers morning
of slack mastication
(Local chain, national, international)
the old-timers glomming into clump
benign zombies
an arrangement of fellas with dissolving jaws
cudding over mammary notions
untailored in sacky pallid sultana skins
reform in a mumble
doing snailish pinball movements
crossing and recrossing floors
cleanly tiled for biohazard accidents
salivating about the savoury soft foods to come
the restaurants rattle-shake-raise their security blinds
also noted
a mixed bag of people projecting
into their smooth glowing slablets
making out like worldly fools
also present
cropped and groomed toy security
peering between the fronds of plastic foliage
offscreen
public bathrooms the first struggling **** of the day
also present
a bench of youngsters in bright blue screen matching pjs
the four employees of sanitation
drumming up for the shift

importing her holiday religion

the night was icy cold.
slippery pavements and frosted rooftops.
I wore dark leather boots, color of burnt sugar. I walked the usual line of lower loneliness.
I walked into deathly crowning of decaying and cheap philosophy.
sea **** ribbon circled my trust, down to a table and perpetual darkness
my legs tangled, my eyes flopped, my heart prickled.
our generation's greatest triumph- a total demise of self. a kingdom of control took me by its metal and plastic tolls, wallowing me in mud of despair.
But there was something else.
Glomming my tiredly attention, filling my eyes with some kind of light, pulsating warmth drew me back to life.
Black locks of hair, drunken white frosting smelling of promise. A swift black river spilled into the ocean and I was floating. I felt it.
I felt it was there, a deep current of life.

Stories mirror moons
moons amoung all stars
unique men and women hear
unspoken words
stories that change
While drifting through time
Fake authors republise
Glomming in everyone's mind
Till the day there stories forgotten
suddenly they don't remember
There ancestors true importance
branches broken and ghosted
Fallon of the grand piece
The day moves along
Without the lost history
After stories are closed
They lay in wait quitely
Till published
And everyone Reflects
On what was forgotten
