Not Reptiles


This one is about clean rooms
a clear light full of brain damage
a bit too clubby at times
get that chocolate off the dolomite

Coffin? just a handful of microbes
then the walls come in
cornice of tomatoes "never let me go"
no farm not to play catch up

A moisture of comets to blame
deep in the zone's suffering collection
a bogus Getz in mundane shock
the way blue jeans correct things

Sob story Toronto tattered tape of
try not to slobber over the Woman in Black
toasties and corn cakes mutilation therefore
pulled out of a machine before you can feel it's paper

Have you got your helmet? hornet's nest?
view of dove-shooting day at the Bushes?
I was hired to go west but the boats kept snapping
sweating and grey being taken as people
that's PEOPLE
