The Gasless Billows

Coil of you
Hard and cold
Hidden furnace
Enmity in man
Human speck
Virulent mote
A rotting campaign
Wheezing dead gas
Muscles mured in the humic layer
Cells clamour
Atoms simmering
Microscopic upheavals
Settle and seep
Life bursting
From vacant sockets
Some will pour
Venom from
Their still bones
In fountains of ash
Knotted labyrinths
Lie along the lines of limbs
Mud and slime and the gasless billows
Two inert wings

Slouching Equinox
08:57

Hengiforms hanging with bloated carcasses
Bloodless fauna on the clay
Banks of votive meat
A bleary gateway
Dry crackle of fire
A guttering flame
We trample the routes
Grit between the teeth
Forest ablaze, endless days chased away.
The once brave sun
In slouched equinox, fled
The moon's grey head
Returns a cold and steady gaze
Night's beasts put up their call
Now there's no turning back from the frigid threshold
Coil revolving through and through....
Into a state of false death
Equinoctial eschaemia
A cold air coagulant
Damming up the source
The roar becomes a hum

Forms Become Vapour
06:16

|

Mind altered to begin
Detritus of a shattered being
Shelved by ignorance
To wile away until soil
Distraction in emptiness
Following the insects
Across the stones
To smash your head against oblivion
Tear away the membrane
Gnaw at the pupa
Feel your form alter
Your eyes roll inward
Stand in opposition of reason
I heave against the shackles
Truth is a brittle glass fragment
Dug into the skull
Melt through the fabric of reality
Mind slips through the pores
Time becomes viscous
Forms become vapor
