One cut to remember. One cut to forget.
One cut to hinder. One cut to abet.
I tidy my fringe. The last stayed unread
in my datebook… my pentangled forehead.

On Noon No ~ The ‘Well… what does it all mean?’ collaboration
And there are really many reasons to be mad about Tony…
…the first one is Crumble Cult.
…the second one is ONCE MORE, WITH FOREBODING.
The third… The fourth… The hell with it! I don’t need so many! There is only a single reason for me… It’s Tony Single!
Thank you, Tony…
Our end began with weaponised words,
bashing the chest like a thousand rolling-pins
on sourdough heart and bone.
Of course, you had a dim foreboding.
Crunch of parchment. Red saffron underfoot.
A marble chopping stone.
I plated myself up for disappointment.
A corrugated brow. Cold hearth and home.
You meant for me to die alone!
You always were flippant and presumptuous.
You estimated our life by eye
and borrowed a swollen loan.
Arugula words were all I tasted from you.
You were east of the sun then west of the moon.
I hardly knew where to point the bone.
Blah… The next pathetic maggot holds forth on stars…
You fought for that last stool on the cheap row
and lost a stage with the vacant throne!
Fine then. I know when I’m royally licked.
Someone gets me a psychotherapist.
Vagina dentata! My ardour has blown!
Lick-time is over. My Symplegades clash.
The dry pillar of Pompey engorges.
The end begins… and ends. Bring a blank die-stone!

Laughable
Gods laugh like crazy…
The sky shakes with a guffaw.
A chance encounter?!

GUEST POST // Rats with Wings by Field of thorns
My apologies to you, for I stole you away
In the dead of the night, whilst you did slumber
In a semiconscious state
I stole you away, in the dead of the night
In the cloak of the rain, and of the thunder
We made our escape, is it any wonder?
I saw how you looked at me, and I too was looking at you
I know I took you without your permission
But, I saw how you were looking at me.
Do not be alarmed, you are my very last part, last part
Last part, of my precious machine
My precious thought machine
A machine made just for two
Where you can be me, and I can be you
In exchange for your thoughts, I give you my heart
You are my very last part, holding the key
The key to the heart, of my precious thought machine.
Close your eyes and let my thoughts in
And a new beginning, will begin, and begin
Don’t be afraid, like the others before
I have given you the key to my heart, my heart
I saw how you were looking at me
And I too was looking at you
You are the very last part, holding the key
The key to the heart, of my precious thought machine.
We have arrive at the shore, the beautiful shore
Where things are pretty and dreamy once more
Pungent smell of camphor wafts through the house
Covering the fragrance of death and decay
Here, we are alone at the shore, just you and I
Where you can be me, and I can be you
I saw how you looked at me, and I too was looking at you
In this lovely house for two
My lovely precious thought machine
A machine made just for two.
Please do not think of escape
No crying, scratching, screaming or such
There is nowhere to run, and no way out
I’ve locked all the windows, and all the doors
Of my precious thought machine, my machine by the shore
Let us sit quietly enjoying each other’s thoughts
In exchange for your thoughts, I give you my heart
You are my very last part, holding the key
The key to the heart, of my precious thought machine.
The gulls in a frenzy upon my return to the shore
How they scream, how they squawk
Louder than the waves knocking upon the door
Who knew my gulls were of the carnivorous sort
How lucky for me, my rats with wings, how they eat, how the eat
They love me and the extra parts that I bring
What they leave behind, sinks to the bottom of the ocean deep
Where things are pretty and dreamy once more.
In time, I know you’ll find I’m perfect for you
In our magic precious thought machine for two
Where you can be me, and I can be you
Just follow my lead and all will be true
I saw how you looked at me, and I too was looking at you
I know I took you without your permission
But, I saw how you were looking at me
In exchange for your thoughts, I give you my heart
You are my very last part, holding the key
The key to the heart, of my precious thought machine.
