Canoes & kayaks hurry past
buffeted by cataracts
in search of sweet asylum
way beyond a joke
a trope
a paradigm
nature’s cracking up
so it would appear
is everything else
ineluctable
just about covers it all
or would you say not?
Orange speech bubbles
Need regular refreshment
Like imagination
Damn clammy, warm, irksome night,
big mall full of grievances,
trams of packed mania,
never reaching the end
cellars of odium,
vapid sapid entropy,
subterranean halogen
car parks full of winos
choreographic knife gangs,
dun roaming big time
noisy empty tenements,
emblematic anthems to
blank random ignorance
mouthless eyes
unblinking
blank empty gazes
walking back to happiness
numbers grow
numbers fall
walking back to happiness
numbers fall
numbers grow
empty blank gazes
unblinking
eyeless mouths
walking back to happiness
