The Wonderful Naffness of Things
And when the Russian bombs
evaporate us all I’ll think not of
great art or love perhaps,
but the wonderful naffness of things.
1970s sitcoms that lasted one series,
starring John Inman as
a fish-and-chip merchant
who goes to run a bonbon factory,
the jokes so bad they make you smile less.
Channel 4 “youth programming”
that’s really just pathetic pranks
like taking strippers home to mum
and windmilling your cock at passing cars.
The Coke and cooked breakfasts

There's no use pretending otherwise,
so I'll give it to you straight:
I'm a very nosy parker.
I consider us to have a tentative friendship
and I've filled in details I didn't already know about you
with a quick Google, months ago.
Today, I watched your TED talk.
So now you know!
I learned a lot, while simuntaneously
not having a clue what you were talking about.
Your work explores the interface
between art and science,
robotics, space and architecture
which is bewildering to me, ...

Paris of the Plains
Kansas City had a rich jazz culture,
where there were snazzy venues
all over the city that displayed
open & welcoming marquee.
Let me stop
and rest a minute.
Kansas City's known
for many things.
12th Street & Vine
is one of them.
Even the Beatles recorded it.
And so we here in Kansas City,
our whole lives,
we all would have to endure it.

Can you see the blinded masses?
Can you hear deafness of the Earth?
Do you smell the scent of vastness?
Do you know the whole of a mind's worth?
Can you put a price on it?
Can you take away the pain?
Do you think it's cause we hate it?
Do you think it takes away their fame?
Can you put me in prison?
I'm in a country that's not yours?
Do you care for my visions?
Or only care for your wars.
Whether they put it all on paper.
Or they make it on the screen.
Their life's career on a wager.
Pass your bill,...

From Typhon to Echidna
I love the sweeping long lines, haze, mist
Diffusing the whole,
And soft wake of shadows
And to see myself
In you
I love the smooth arcs of your
Violence,
Deep swathes, curvatures,
Both metallic
And soft
I love you to contradictions
As the train calls me
To leave,
With its mournful klaxon
I recall,
I never feel
So acutely alone
As when I travel,
I suppose,
The protection of the familiar
Is stripped away,
Baring the soul
In all it’s terrible...

Moratorium Agenda
Moratorium Agenda
I will not
punish anything,
prosecute,
or throw my hat
into a ring;
I simply do
not join a team,
hold with those,
or break a beam.
Rewarding good
behavior though,
saying yes
for every flow,
these are things
I'm all about;
peaceful words,
I will not shout.

she'll ought despair,

Cézanne Illustrates Carmen’s Diary
Cézanne Illustrates Carmen’s Diary
“My diary is written in liquid words which steam into the mist in maiden eyes whose secrets lack only the brushstrokes of a Cézanne for the words to find a home.”
“I appreciate the compliment but I am a dilettante painter. My art would splash into your script and cover the written memories that are so precious to you.”
“If I lose a jot or two it is of no consequence. Just be careful and do your best. Your pigment on my paper will make my scribbling art. My inking will be anointed by the stain of your palette...

Artist
Those whom are easily liked by everyone
will seldom be loved deeply by anyone
Maybe some people the world belongs to
while other people belong to the world
I’ve accepted my fate
The girl who no one understands
The witch who burns in the sun
Fated to lie in the middle of the ocean
singing a siren’s song for eternity
I wonder if anyone will ever hear it
I wonder if it will have been worth it
To create art that no one will admire
to help those who will never care
Should I have tried harder to be normal?
